2015 Ford Focus Complaint Log

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 60 AND MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND AN ALERT POPPED UP ON MY DASH SAYING 'DRIVER ASSIST FAULT. REPAIR REQUIRED', IT WENT AWAY AFTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES BUT IT HAS HAPPENED ONCE AGAIN SINCE THEN AND THE FIRST OCCURRENCE ONLY HAPPENED YESTERDAY. AND AS WELL TO THAT MY TRANSMISSION WHICH IS A 6 SPEED IS STIFF AND STICKS A LOT WHERE I CAN'T CHANGE GEARS IMMEDIATELY.

WENT INTO A STORE, PARKED IN PARKING SPOT, CAME OUT, GOT IN CAR, PLACED CAR IN REVERSE TO BACK OUT OF SPOT, CAR BEGAN TO BACK UP, THEN SLOWED DOWN AND STOPPED WITH ENGINE STILL ON,. I THEN PLACED CAR IN DRIVE, WENT FORWARD, THEN ATTEMPTED TO BACK OUT AGAIN, CAR BACKED UP, THEN SLOWED DOWN AGAIN, THEN JERKED REALLY HARD. AFTER WAITING FOR THE CARS PARKED ON THE RIGHT AND LEFT SIDE OF ME TO LEAVE, I PLACED CAR IN REVERSE AGAIN, IT STOPPED AGAIN, I PLACED CAR IN DRIVE, CAR ACCELERATED SLOWLY, THEN GAVE A HARD JERK AGAIN, AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE FORWARD AND MAKE A COMPLETE CIRCLE, AND DRIVE FORWARD OUT OF THE PARKING SPOT A HALF A MILE HOME . UPON ENTERING MY DRIVEWAY, CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE AND STOPPED WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES IMMEDIATELY. THE CAR SAT FOR 24HRS, I THEN TRIED TO START IT UP, IT STARTED UP, BUT WHEN I PLACED IT INTO REVERSE, IT DID NOT MOVE AT ALL.

CAR STALLS AND TURNS OFF WHEN SLOWING DOWN OR STOPPING AT LIGHTS OR STOP SIGNS I HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN TWO WRECKS. THIS RECALL HAPPENED BEFORE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE AND THE CAR COMPANY FAILED TO GIVE ME INFORMATION ABOUT RECALL.

WHILE DRIVING HOME (FIVE HOUR ROAD TRIP) NOISES STARTED COMING FROM THE STEERING WHEEL. FELT LIKE IT WAS IS BINDING AND GRINDING. THIS ONLY HAPPENED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY ON MY WAY HOME, LATER ON CITY STREETS, WHEN TURNING. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK MY CAR TO SAVANNAH TIRE TO SEE WHAT WAS WRONG. THE DX WAS RACK AND PINION. THEY COULD NOT REPAIR MY CAR. I WAS TOLD THAT MY CAR WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE PROBLEM STARTED AROUND THE FIRST OF JULY. MY STEERING NOT WORKING PROPERLY ON A FIVE YEAR CAR IS A PROBLEM, THIS MADE MY CAR UNSAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE. AT ANY TIME MY STEERING GEAR COULD HAVE WENT OUT CAUSING ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT HURTING MYSELF OR OTHERS. I COULD HAVE DIED. FORD HAS HAD STEERING ISSUES IN THE PAST ON MY CAR. THE CAR HAS HAD THREE RECALLS. ONE FORD RECALLED ON THERE OWN (STEERING ISSUES). I HAD TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED ON MY OWN PAYING THE AMOUNT OF $2,457.70 PLEASE FOR THE SAFETY OF OTHERS RECALL THIS, SO THAT FORD CAN TAKE RESPONSIBLY FOR THE SAFETY OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE BOUGHT THIS CAR.

I HAD MY FORD FOCUS TRANSMISSION REPAIRED AT LEAST THREE TIMES SO FAR. AS OF TODAY, THE CAR IS STILL STALLING AND JERKING. I SCHEDULED A SERVICE MAINTENANCE TODAY. BUT, I WAS TURNED DOWN BY TODD ( SERVICE REP) AND BOB (SERVICE MANAGER) BECAUSE THE LEVEL OF EFFECTIVENESS WAS NOT AMOUNTED TO 250. THEREFORE, THEY RECOMMEND THAT I SHOULD CONTINUE DRIVING THE CAR AS IS AND RISK MY LIFE AND MY FAMILY. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. MY LIFE AND MY FAMILY LIFE IS WORTH MORE THAN $3000.

MY CAR APPEARS TO OVER HEAT WHILE IDLED; SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY AND AGAIN WAITING IN A DRIVE THROUGH. THIS HAD HAPPENED BEFORE OVER A YEAR AGO AND IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A RECALL TRANSMISSION ISSUE AND IT WAS FIXED. I RECEIVE A WARNING STATING THAT THE CAR IS TOO HOT PULL OVER BECAUSE IT WILL CUT OFF. I TURN OFF MY CAR FOR A MINUTE OR LESS AND IT RETURNS TO NORMAL. THIS TAKES PLACE IF THE AC IS ON OR NOT.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY STEERING WHEEL BECAME EXTREMELY STIFF WHILE EXITING THE RAMP NEARLY CAUSING ME TO VEER INTO ON COMING TRAFFIC. THIS VEHICLE HAS ALREADY HAS HAD A CLUTCH REPLACEMENT ALONG WITH A RECALL FOR THE TRANSMISSION... I WAS UNABLE TO CONTINUE DRIVING THAT DAY AS I WAS TERRIFIED. I BROUGHT MY CAR TO FORD DEALER AND THE HAVE SAID IT NEEDED A STEERING RACK REPLACED AT A COST OF OVER $2000 I UNFORTUNATELY DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY AT THIS TIME FOR REPAIR SO I HAD TO DRIVE IT ONCE MORE TO TAKE IT HOME , WHICH WAS ANOTHER SCARY ORDEAL.. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND THERE SEEMS TO AN ON GOING PROBLEM WITH STEERING.. I HAVE ATTACHED THE DIAGNOSTIC REPORT AND ALSO A SUMMARY ON PREVIOUS WORK DONE. *TR

TRUNK OPENS WHILE DRIVING. *TR

WAS DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH. VEHICLE STALLED. PULLED TO SIDE OF ROAD. RESTORED CAR. GOT OFF THE HIGHWAY AND WHILE DRIVING CAR STALLED AGAIN. RESTARTED PULLED TO SIDE ROAD AND WHILE DRIVING STALLED AGAIN. *TR

I HAVE A 2015 FORD FOCUS HATCHBACK AND THE TRANSMISSION HAS ALREADY FAILED AND MY VAN IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST EVEN THOUGH THERE'S BEEN A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION. THE TRANSMISSION WILL NOT GO INTO SECOND GEAR I'M ONLY DRIVING FIXED.

THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED, AND STOPPED, AND WOULD NOT START IN MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC SEVERAL TIMES, INCLUDING THE LAST INCIDENT WHERE POLICE HAD TO ASSIST AT A RED LIGHT. SO TRAUMATIC, NOT DRIVEN SINCE AND CONTINUE TO PAY NOTES AND INSURANCE. HAVE HAD VECHILE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES, AND PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. PLEASE HELP. THANKS.

POWER STEERING FAILED. MY GRANDSON PULLED INTO A PARKING SPACE AND A WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. WE DISCOVERED IT WAS THE POWER STEERING. THANK GOODNESS WE WERE NOT DRIVING WHEN THIS HAPPENED AS WE HAD BEEN RUNNING ERRANDS ALL DAY. *TR

WHEN IDLING FOR SO LONG THE CAR JUST DIED. I OPENED THE DOOR AND THE ALARM WENT HAYWIRE. THEN I HAVE TO WAIT 20 TO 30 MINUTES BEFORE I CAN RESTART THE CAR. NOTHING WILL WORK AFTER IT DOES THIS UNTIL IT'S ABLE TO BE RESTARTED. IT'S BEEN AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP. THEY REPLACED TRANSMISSION ISSUE, SAID THAT SHOULD FIX IT, BUT IT STILL KEEPS ON. *TR

VEHICLE STALLS, HIGH AND ERRATIC IDLE. *TR

THE DRAIN PLUG FOR THE B6 6-SPEED TRANSMISSION COMES LOOSE AND CAUSES THE TRANSMISSION FLUID TO BLEED OUT. CAUSING THE TRANSMISSION TO BURN UP. THIS IS A FACTORY SHIELD SYSTEM NO WAY TO CHECK FLUID LEVEL. APPARENTLY THE FLUIDS LEAK WHILE TRAVELING. *TR

THIS VEHICLE WAS RECALLED FOR SHUDDERING AND HESITATION, IT WAS WORKING FINE BUT LATELY THE PROBLEM IS BACK.

WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL AT IDLE, THERE IS A LOUD GRINDING NOISE. THERE IS NO INCREASE IN RESISTANCE. WHEN DRIVING THE POWER ASSIST INTERMITTENTLY WILL FAIL. IT SEEMS TO GO ON AND OFF AS YOU DRIVE AT 35-45 MPH ON CITY STREETS. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING SIMPLY FOLLOWING THE CURVES IN THE ROAD. I WILL NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE ANY FASTER AS I AM CONCERNED IF IT FAILS UNEXPECTEDLY AT HIGHER SPEED, IT WILL RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THE 2011-2014 VEHICLES WERE RECALLED BUT THIS MODEL YEAR WAS NOT.

TRANSMISSION- WAS DENIED SERVICE FOR CLUTCH REPLACEMENT DUE TO MILEAGE OVER 100,000. THOUGH I FILED COMPLAINT AT 90,000 MILES. ALSO, TRANSMISSION LEAKS DUE TO THE FAULTY TRANSMISSION. UNSAFE DUE TO POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD. FUEL- FUEL TANK WAS REPAIRED BY CERTIFIED SERVICE DEALER, SINCE THE REPAIR I'VE BEEN STRANDED 7X DUE TO UNABLE TO GET FUEL. HALF TANK OF GAS TRAVELING HIGH SPEEDS ON INTERSTATE WITH TRAFFIC AND CAR SHUTS OFF, I LOSE ABILITY TO CONTROL VEHICLE. 3X I'VE BARELY AVOIDED COLLISION. SINGLE MOM, ONE VEHICLE. SOMETHING HAS TO GIVE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING LOCALLY AND ON A STRAIGHT ROAD AT 50 MILES/HR, I SUDDENLY LOST POWER STEERING ABILITY. I WAS ALSO NOTIFIED VIA THE DASHBOARD COMMUNICATION SYSTEM "STEERING LOSS - STOP SAFELY". I WAS ABLE TO MUSCLE THE CAR OFF THE ROAD AND EVENTUALLY BACK HOME. I CALLED THE FORD DEALER TO BE TOLD THIS HAPPENS AND WOULD BE AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR. I ALSO RESEARCHED AND SEE THAT THIS IS A PREVALENT PROBLEM WITH FORD AND CHEVY VEHICLES. AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, THE LOSS OF STEERING CAPABILITY - SUDDENLY, WITHOUT WARNING IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY THE MANUFACTURER. WE ARE TALKING THE INABILITY TO CONTROL A 2000 POUND SLEDGEHAMMER WHEN THIS OCCURS.

EVERY 4 DAYS THE STEREO DROPS THE BLUETOOTH CONNECTION. THOUGHT MAYBE IT NEEDED A SOFTWARE UPDATE. THEN I NOTICED MY MPG WAS ONLY AT 13.3MPG WHILE HIGHWAY DRIVING. FURTHER INVESTIGATION I NOTICED MY DISTANCE TO E WOULD SOMETIMES READ 415 MILES AFTER FILLING UP THEN IT WOULD SAY 226 OR EVEN 183. AM I MISSING SOMETHING HERE? CONTACTED A COUPLE OF FORD DEALERSHIPS BECAUSE MY WARRANTY & EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED ( MIND YOU THE VEHICLE IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD) STARTING TO HAVE ELECTRICAL ISSUES AND FORD WANTS TO CHARGE ME TO EVEN LOOK AT IT. IF I AM WRONG PLEASE SOMEONE EDUCATE ME. ALSO RESETTING THE SYNC SYSTEM HELPS WITH THE BLUETOOTH PROBLEM BUT I ALSO HAVE TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY FOR 30 SECONDS. *TR

THE ACTIVE DIAGNOSTIC CODES AND LOCAL FORD DEALER DIAGNOSIS CONFIRMED THE CANISTER PURGE VALVE HAD FAILED.

CAR WOULD SHUTTER THAN STOP RUNNING WHILE IT WAS IN MOTION. THE OIL LIGHT AND BATTERY LIGHT WOULD COME ON. ONLY ONCE THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THEN THE CAR WOULDN'T START AGAIN FOR AWHILE, AT LEAST 20 MINUTES.
