CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2015 Ford Focus & its "Powershift" transmission has a defect trend where the car shudders when accelerating, especially when starting uphill. Read more »
Most owners have reported their Ford Focus remains driveable while the vehicle is still at low mileage, but the shuddering is annoying & unpleasant & may reduce the resale value of the vehicle.
However, owners of higher-mileage vehicles from earlier 3rd generation Focus model years report transmission failure & a host of other major & expensive transmission-related problems. Potential buyers beware.
I have had my car in the shop 4 times already for the same thing. the engine light will come on and it's becoming more frequently. they keep resetting it and said they know there's a problem but they don't have a fix for it. I'm just really fed up and how long can this go on if they don't fix it, I can't sell the car like this and it's going to loose any value.
