2015 Ford Focus UNKNOWN OR OTHER

RPM jumps when pedal is not pushed. Car has issues going into reverse. TCM issues.

The door latch on my driver side rear door just stopped working and it won’t shut at all.

I hit a deer, lost control of my vehicle and rolled it twice. None of my air bags deployed and my 911 assist never dialed 911.

MY CAR IS STALLING WHILE IN MOTION AND AT A IDLE. IT WILL STALL AFTER SITTING IDLE FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO A FORD SERVICE CENTER AND THEY REFUSED TO FIX THE RECALL BECAUSE THE DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE DID NOT SHOW A CODE WHEN THE CAR WAS HOOKED UP TO THE MACHINE.

The vehicle is slow to move when put into gear, (or from a stopped position on the road), and then suddenly lurches forward. This has been reported to several FORD car care centers but they do nothing about it and expect the driver to "adapt" to the way the car handles. This can cause an accident when making a turn from a stop because there is no acceptable predictability of it happening.

THE PUSH OPEN GAS COVER WON'T OPEN LEAVING ME STRANDED AT GAS STATION.

TRANSMISSION HE RUNS WELL IN FIRST AND SECOND PERFECTLY AND IN THIRD SKATES

THE TRANSMISSION THE GEARS WONT GO INTO REVERSE THERE WAS A RECALL ON TRANSMISSION CLUTCH STILL DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM ITS NOT EVEN 5 YEARS I HAVE HAD IT

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.

DRIVER STATEMENT = ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK AT APPROXIMATELY 03:00(AM) I WAS DRIVING THE GOV TRAVELING WESTBOUND ON 72ND AVENUE PAST THE INTERSECTION OF PIERCE STREET. I NOTICED THE CABIN OF THE CAR STARTING TO FILL WITH SMOKE, THEN I NOTICED A SMALL FLAME UNDER THE HOOD OF THE CAR. SO THEN I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND CALLED 911. WHEN THE ARVADA POLICE ARRIVED ON THE SCENE, THEY HAD A SMALL FIRE EXTINGUISHER WHICH THEY TRIED TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE. SHORTLY AFTER THAT THE ARVADA FIRE DEPARTMENT ARRIVED AND PUT THE FIRE OUT. NO ONE WAS INJURED AND THERE WAS NOT ANY PROPERTY DAMAGE OTHER THAN THE GOV.*DT *JS

RECALL #19N08. THE CAR HAS WHAT RECALL LETTER SAYS IS "A JUDDER OR SHUDDER ON LIGHT ACCELERATION FROM A STOP OR DURING SHIFT EVENTS"; ALTHOUGH MINE IS NOT 'LIGHT'. SEVERAL TIMES UPON ENTERING A MAIN STREET FROM A SIDE STREET THE CAR SHUDDER'S SO BADLY I ALMOST GET HIT. WHEN DRIVING ON A TURNPIKE, I ACCELERATE, AND IT SHUDDERS. AT A STOP, IT SHAKES & SHUDDERS FOR 3 OR 4 CAR LENGTHS. IT'S NOT SAFE & IT'S GOTTEN WORSE SINCE I GOT THE CAR. MATTHEW'S FORD IN BROKEN ARROW, OK SAYS I DO NOT HAVE A CLEAN TITLE AND WHEN I CALLED THE OKLAHOMA COMMISSION DMV OFFICE, THEY SAY THE TITLE IS 'BRANDED'. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? AND, ONE OF THEM SAID THAT THE WARRANTY HAD BEEN CANCELLED, THEREFORE THERE CAN BE NO RECALL WORK DONE ON THE VEHICLE. THERE ARE SOME EXTENUATING CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING THIS CAR. THE DEALERSHIP LIED TO ME ABOUT THE FINANCING (HURTING MY CREDIT AND FINANCES) AND WE ENDED UP IN A LAWSUIT, WHICH WAS SETTLED. I WOULD HOPE THAT THE DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING MEAN TO HURT ME FURTHER. DURING THE LAWSUIT THEY HAD PROVIDED ME WITH A TITLE, BUT IT WAS NOT NOTARIZED PROPERLY, AND I COULDN'T GET A TAG FOR ALMOST 9 MONTHS. WHEN WE SETTLED, I RECEIVED A GREEN TITLE EXACTLY LIKE I HAD ON OTHER CARS...SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT THAT HINDERS ME FROM A RECALL REPAIR. I'M 74 AND HAVE BOUGHT A LOT OF CARS AND THE TITLE LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE OTHERS, NO NOTATIONS OR STAMPS ON IT OR ANYTHING. I EVEN LOOKED ON CAR-FAX AND TALKED TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER (A FEMALE COLLEGE STUDENT) BEFORE AGREEING TO PURCHASE THE CAR. THERE WAS ONLY 32,000 MILES ON IT WHEN I FIRST LOOKED AT IT DECEMBER 17, 2018. JUST REMEMBERED...THE SALESMAN SNEAKED IN A "TIRE & WHEEL WARRANTY" FOR $1,600. I CANCELLED IT, BUT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH MECHANICAL PART OF CAR AND WARRANTY PLACE SENT MONEY BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHICH THEY KEPT.

RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE 18S32. I WENT TO FORD WEBSITE TO CHECK IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER RECALLS SO I COULD THEM WHILE DONE I'M OUT OF TOWN. THE ONLY RECALL IT LISTED IS THIS ONE, BUT WEBSITE SAYS RECALL INCOMPLETE

TAKATA RECALL MY TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN BAD ON MY 2015 SINCE I PURCHASED IT ON 10/01/16. I TRIED TELLING THE MANUFACTURES AFTER I DROVE IT AROUND TOWN AWHILE. IT WAS JERKING AND WOULDN'T GET POWER TO DRIVE. I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TAKE IT TO DEALERSHIPS FOR 2 YEARS AND THEY HAVEN'T TRIED FIXING IT. I WOULD LIKE AN ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.

VEHICLE JUST TURNS OFF OUT OF NOW WHERE NO MATTER THE SPEED AND IT HAS BEEN TURNING OFF EVEN WHEN IT IS IN PARK.

AFTER 3 WEEKS OF PURCHASING A NEW 2015, WE EXPERIENCE SEVERE TRANSMISSION SLIPPING AND SHUDDERING . STEERING COLUMN SHAKE, SHIFTS UP AND DOWN FORCED AND NOT ACCURATE. SLUGGISH PERFORMANCE TO THE POINT OF BEING A SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD. HELP ME. FORD SAID IT WAS MY FAULT, REFUSED TO GENERATE A WORK ORDER. 2ND TIME DIF DEALER SAID IT WAS NORMAL GO AWAY NO WORK ORDER EVEN. 3RD VISIT THEY SAID LEAVE IT FOR 30 DAYS, I CAN'T. THEY WOULDN'T GIVE ME A LOANER.4 TRY THEY SAID DON'T KNOW WHAT U TALKING ABOUT. I NEED FORD TO BUY THIS CAR BACK.HELP. I WILL GIVE MY CAR TO NHTSA TO VERIFY AND USE FREE OF CHARGE. THEY CAN KEEP IT.

A/C SOMETIMES REDUCES TO ALMOST NO AIR AND LITTLE COOLING, DEALER SAYS THE A/C CONDENSOR IS FREEZING INTO A BLOCK OF ICE DUE TO FAILING SENSOR(S), BUT THE COMPUTER DOES NOT STORE A CODE SO THEY WON'T REPLACE ANY SENSORS UNTIL THE A/C FAILS AND I BRING IT IN WHILE IT IS IN FAILURE MODE!!! REALLY CONVENIENT IN THE NO. CAL. SUMMER OF 100 PLUS DEGREE HEAT!!!! THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING SINCE 2017 WITH NO REPAIRS MADE!!!

THE PROBLEM IS THE CLUTCH ASSEMBLY AND I DON'T KNOW WHY FORD HASN'T PLACED A RECALL ON THIS. MANY OWNERS ARE HAVING TO DEAL WITH THIS KNOWN ISSUE.

RECALL WITH THE PCM AND TCM ON THIS VEHICLE ARE A ISSUE CONSISTENTLY EVERY SEVERAL MONTHS IT IS BACK AT THE DEALERSHIP GETTING REPAIRED. THE RECALL ONLY COVERS THE VEHICLE TILL 80,000 MILES. UNFORTUNATELY SINCE IT NEEDS WORK (UNDER RECALL ISSUE) EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS TO KEEP THE CAR RUNNING I AM AT A LOSS AS TO WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO DO WHEN MY CAR HITS 80,000. THE CAR HAS A HARD SHIFT, SOMETIMES WILL NOT REVERSE, SOMETIMES WILL NOT START, SOMETIMES WILL NOT PASS 1ST GEAR.

THE TRUNK SUSPENSIONS ARE NOT ADEQUATE AND HAVE ALLOWED THE TRUNK TO CLOSE ON THE OWNERS AND FAMILY MEMBERS NUMEROUS TIMES CAUSING ABRASIONS AND HEMATOMAS. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES WERE NOTIFIED SEVERAL TIMES, HERE IN KINGMAN, AZ. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, NEW IN EUGENE, OREGON AND THIS PROBLEM WAS EVIDENT. "NO CORRECTIONS ARE AVAILABLE." WHY?

FORD ISSUED A RECALL FOR MY FORD FOCUS BECAUSE THERE'S AN ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE'S CLUTCH. EVERYTHING WAS SUPPOSED TO BE COVERED WITH NO EXPENSE TO ME. UPON DELIVERING THE CAR TO A FORD DEALERSHIP I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD BE CHARGED $145 FOR THEM TO RUN A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK TO LOCATE THE SEVERITY OF THE ISSUE TO MY CLUTCH. IF THE RESULTS COME BACK SHOWING THE CLUTCH TO BE THE ISSUE THEN THE FEE WOULD BE WAIVED, BUT IF IT TURNS OUT TO BE ANOTHER ISSUE THEN I'D BE FOUND LIABLE FOR THE CHARGE. IN THIS INSTANCE BECAUSE THERE'S A RECALL THAT HAS BEEN ISSUED BY FORD, I DO NOT FEEL THAT I SHOULD BE GETTING CHARGED JUST TO HAVE THEM LOOK OVER THE VEHICLE.

THE TRANSMISSION WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR WAS SPUTTERING BECAUSE OF THE DRY CLUTCH. IT HAPPENED WHEN THE CAR WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET

I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS. ALMOST EVERYDAY WHEN I DRIVE THE CAR, IT STALL, SLIPPED OR DOESN'T WANT TO GO AT TAKE OFF. THERE HAS BEEN MANY TIME WHERE I PRESS THE GAS TO GO WHILE IN DRIVE AND IT WON'T GO AND ACTS LIKE IT'S IN NEUTRAL. I HAVE ALMOST GOTTEN IN CAR ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. THE TRANSMISSION IS HORRIBLE. IT'S THE DUAL-CLUTCH TRANSMISSION. THEY HAVE EVEN SENT OUT A LETTER STATING THAT IT'S THE TRANSMISSION AND IF YOU HAVE HAD IT SERVICES 3 OR MORE TIMES, YOU CAN GET CASH OR REPLACEMENT CAR. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO GO GET IT CHECKED OUT 3 TIMES AND I ALSO DON'T REALLY NEED TO BECAUSE I ALREADY KNOW THE PROBLEM. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND CAN CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT.
