CarComplaints.com Notes: For the third year in a row, the 3rd generation Focus is experiencing massive transmission problems.

Most notably owners keep complaining about how there's bad hesitation and jerking when starting from a stop. This isn't the result of an old, worn out part. In fact, the average mileage it's reported to us is just over 15k miles.

Our 2014 Ford Focus has a loud rattly clutch or trans noise. Friends and family can't believe the noise. Ford Australia have done nothing to resolve this problem, except give us the run around even though the car is still under new car warranty. They say it's a normal noise of dual clutches of the of the vehicle. What a lot of rubbish. This is going to be an ongoing problem and they think we are going to go away. WRONG.
