 Ford needs to hire some engineers that have some technology.The automatic stick shift transmission as they call it is a joke and dangerous to drive. Still Ford won't man up and recall and replace the transmission. It slips, shutters, and mine has had the clutches replaced already, still is no good!The dealer keeps making up excuses like the car is supposed to shudder, or it has to learn your driving. What a joke!It's a shame because it's a fun car to drive until it hit 7000 miles, the service dept told me upfront that they get at least one car in a day with this same complaint! FORD MAN UP AND RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM!I finally dumped the focus after ford could not fix the problem, last ford I will ever own. Shame on Ford. It said on the side window build in Flint Michigan with pride. I hated to dump that car on someone else but not much I could do, they have had tons of complaints.
