 I currently have a 2014 Ford Focus. This car has given me problems since the first month I purchased it. I purchased it with 14 miles on it. I took it back to the dealership with 1000 miles on it as it was jerking really bad. It acted as though I was driving a really bad stick shift car, I was not. The service folks told me this is how the Ford Focus functions. I took it back again at approximately 20,000 miles, the issue continued to get worse. The shaking, the stuttering, the slow take off. Again, the service guys told me this is how the Ford Focus functioned. I knew something wasn't right. Now, they tell me at 65K miles, the clutch is bad and needs to be replaced. Ford is NOT taking responsibility for their awful transmission issues. This problem began from the very beginning. I purchased this car for my 16 year daughter. I will no longer allow her to drive this car as it may quit on her at any moment. I wonder if the President of FORD or the Ford dealership would purchase this vehicle for their daughter? I would say, they would not. I do not recommend anyone purchase this vehicle as Ford nor the dealership will stand behind you. When you go to trade, they don't want to give you anything for the car as they know it is not worth a dime. Never again will I purchase a FORD vehicle. It’s back in the shop today! Horrible car. Worse purchase ever!
