Shortly after I bought this car. I noticed originally last of power during acceleration and later it would do a combination of last of power at times and lunging when the automatic transmission would shift gears(automatically). Eventually, frontier Ford(dealership) replaced the clutch n a few other minor items related to the clutch. The problems the same issues continue to occur. I finally filed a complain with the bbb, it appears the dealership simply never returned their calls or emails and that case was closed. Next I contacted the sj bureau of automotive repair. Their determination was that Ford fiestas and Focus models were notorious for serious trasmition problems. It implied that it was a feature not a bug because eventhough the sj bar knew of these serious issues they took no action. I started not driving the car as much looking into how I could get the manufacturer to buy back this unreliable dangerous car. I am en experienced driver so I avoided accidents when the car would malfunction, however the nigh of 11/06/19 at about midnight my daughter took the car without permition and when the car lunged foward (as it would do while shifting gears automatically) during a street turn, she lost control of the car and crashed into 2 parked cars. The airbags didnt deploy and the seatbealt didnt lock resulting in her getting a concusion and a pretty bloody mouth as her head hit the steering wheel(these 2 defects were unknown to me previously). Having to do monthly payments on this unsafe, unreliable car had lots of negative ripple effects in my family's life culminating in my daughter being injured by well known defects by Ford. It is my understanding that there is even class action lawsuits for fiesta and Focus cars but I truely dont know how any of that works. My hope here is that at a minimum these complains can help get these dangerous cars off the road.
