This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I have a 2018 Ford Focus SE that is less then a year old and it bogs down, acts like its going to stall out and doesn't get the gas mileage it's suppose too. It bogs down when I am driving it and when driving it will spit and sputter like it's going to stall out on me then snaps out of it. Ford keeps telling me that nothing is wrong with it.
The contact owns a 2018 Ford Focus. While the contact was driving, the fuel gauge failed to provide an accurate reading. Occasionally, the vehicle also failed to start. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was notified of the failures and advised the contact to take the vehicle to a dealer. The contact was also referred to NHTSA. The approximate failure mileage was 14,333.
I was driving normally and the engine shut down with no warning (lights on the instrument panel went off) then came back up. Not long after this, I came across an article that suggested a current recall could be to blame for this but my VIN is not included in this recall. It should be. (date of occurrence is approximate.)
