 I purchased my 2014 Ford Focus in May of 2014. I liked the car at first, but in the first few days of driving it, I noticed the quirkiness of the automatic transmission. When I was test driving the car the salesman told me not to punch it because the engine was not broke in yet. But now I know why. It was because the car will hesitate we attempting to quickly take off from a stop. And the hesitation is significant.  At the 3,000 mile mark, the fuel pump in the gas tank went out, leaving me stranded. I had to have it towed back to the dealer to have them install a new fuel pump (Under warranty). At the same time I had them replace one of the back passenger windows because of a scratch inside the glass itself (Also fixed under warranty). Now at the 10,000 miles, the car is starting to shudder when in slow traffic. There's also a clunk sound when accelerating from a slow speed. I'll never buy a Ford again, and Edmund's needs to re-think their review of this car.  I should change my review to a two star rating but I've already spent too much time on this POS.UPDATED: I unloaded my Focus in December of 2016. I had been a Ford guy for 50 years,  Ford does not stand behind their products. And, I’ll never own a Ford again.
