Bringing my 2014 Focus SE back to the dealer on Thursday to have them take another crack at fixing the transmission. Back in May they patched the software, but it still didn't run 100% smoothly. I brought it back 2 weeks later and they said they couldn't find anything wrong.
I took delivery on 12/16/13 and I now have 18,000+ miles on it. The warranty extension is welcome and is a sign Ford knows about the problems.
Look, the car is inexpensive and gets great mileage but the transmission on a brand new car should shift smoothly 100% of the time. It should not pick random times to "shudder" when accelerating slowly from 0-5mph as in a parking lot or in stop-and-go traffic.
