A few weeks after I had gotten my car on may 12th 2018 I noticed grinding, jerking, felt almost as if it were tryong to stall and that there was alot of play in the transmission when rotating tires, I took the car to the wlford dealership in sikeston missouri they claim that they didnt not hear, see, or feel anything. But did not put the car on the rack or anything they just drove it around the block. They threw a fit about giving me a loaner and were doing there best to prevent any work being done on the car. They claim that this was normal I done some research and others have had problems with this pos powershift automatic transmission. Well its now 4 months down the road and the car is only getting worse it is jerking bad, grinding, clinking, clacking, poor throttle response, barely able to get up a hill, the wholse transmission is t. These cars are mad cheap and sold at an overpriced amount, I will not be buying anything from Ford again. But for how much I paid, there will be a new transmission or someone giving a new car if this t keeps up. 2018 Ford Focus worst pos on this planet do not buy it. Who was the dumb to even think that a couple of solenoids and a computer could control a manual transmission in an automatic gearbox???? its not powershift either cause this car has no power whatsoever it feels like it has 50hp and 2lbs tq. 3rd gear is the only get up and go gear all the other ones are sluggish an you have to put the pedal almost all the way to the floor just to go anywhere.
