I am driving on the highway, and the used car I just bought with in the last week is shuddering, jerking, and slip out of gear. It only had one owner, and a little over 56,000 miles. Now I have only put 125 miles on it, and it does this. Since it slows down quickly with a fierce jerk of the car, I was lucky and did not cause an accident because of the problem, and other cars behind me slamming on there brakes.
My '07 Focus has been slipping out of gear & at times, just stops! a yellow flashing, od off, lights & flashes on the dash. Left me stranded & I have ms!! I purchased this car with 8 miles on it and have taken very good care of it, so I would never have to worry about being stranded. It has only 53,700 miles! is there a recall or a class action suit, because I would be interested in either or both! when I was stopped on a steep hill, approximately five years ago when the car had roughly 20000 miles, it started to roll backwards even though it was in drive. Then it was fine so I didn't see a reason to bring it in, just guessed the hill was too steep for it. . . Seems I guessed wrong!.
