Sad to see how far a great American company has fallen.
I have a 2015 Ford Focus I bought used in 2016, with 29,000 miles on it.
About a year later I got a letter from Ford stating that they were recalling Ford Focus and Fiesta models, and mine was one of them. Why? Faulty transmissions. Some peoples cars were breaking down on the highway, and it happened to so many that a class action lawsuit was filed. That ended up with Ford recalling and REPLACING the bad transmissions. Mine was one of them. I really hadn’t noticed anything amiss, but other than that, it’s been a great little car.
I’m holding out for the rainbow-colored Pride Rump Ranger.
