Transmission Noise problems of the 2016 Ford Focus

Car was hesitant to go and skipping and makes awful noise on the passenger side front when on highway road noise. Dealer replaced clutch and seals and did a transmission service. Nothing was done about the awful road noise.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford fusion. The contact stated that upon starting the vehicle, the vehicle failed to accelerate with the accelerator pedal depressed. There was an abnormal noise coming from the engine. The service transmission message was displayed on the instrument panel. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where the contact was informed that his vehicle was under recall for the transmission. The contact then had the vehicle towed to mac haik Ford (10333 katy fwy, houston, TX 7702, and was informed that the vehicle was not subjected to a recall. The contact referenced NHTSA campaign number: 18v845000 (power train) however, neither the year, make, or model vehicle was included in the NHTSA campaign. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 62,000.

After the original recall to repair the stuck canister purge valve my vehicles fuel gauge is not accurate I run out of gas at 1/4 tank or 135 miles to empty. When filling up on fuel my vehicle will not start properly when attempting to start the vehicle after refilling the fuel tank to full. This is not a one time issue this is a ongoing issue that happens many times a month. Transmission is jerking and makes noise and the dealer tells me this is normal when I know it is not. Ford has told the dealerships to tell owners of this vehicle it is normal so they are force to lie per company instructions. This vehicle and all other like it should be sent to the dealers for buy back.

Bought new on 12/25/2015. Started hesitating starting off, skipping like spinning tires. Got worse and like going over strips in the road. Akin replaced the computer and the clutch 9/2016. Did fine then started again. Had it checked and could not make it duplicate the problem (01/2017). Just this week (04/06/2017 it started doing it again, and quickly increased happening. 04/07/2017 was so bad it would not change from 1st to 2nd gear and now has a scratching/rattling noise. Called dealer and service dept. Says to call in the morning and set appt. To bring in. Had husband riding this time and it is the transmission. Also has a slight drop or hesitation while driving as it seems to be dropping back in power and then picks back up. Very dangerous and scary. This happens starting off from a stop, turning from stop, going down the highway. I did not have the air turned on!.

When I first bought the car it started making noise when I drove it I took it in they said they fixed the problems it was still under warranty. After a couple of weeks it started making the same noises so when I had time a couple of months later I took it in again and they told me it was the transmission and that my warranty was not active anymore. It made the same noises the first time I took it in and they never said it was the transmission it was a wheel problem. I'm asking for help on what to do thanks.

My 2016 Focus has been giving me issues since I purchased it in August 2016. I have experienced excessive shuddering and jerking during acceleration at a slow or fast acceleration. I heard a ticking noise when the car is in drive or park. I finally was able to get an appointment with the service department to get the issue checked out but its 2 weeks away(8/15/17). All Ford dealerships in baton rouge, la are backup due to the issues with the transmission. One of the service departments told me that all they can do is reset the transmission and it should fix the problem. The Ford dealership I brought my car from told me that they don't have a transmission guy to even look at my car and to go somewhere else.
