I WAS GIVEN A PIECE OF PAPER FROM FORD STATING THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSIONS. THE DEALER TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. THIS WAS NOT DISCLOSED TO ME WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR AND WAS TOLD IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH \"BREAK IN PERIOD\" AND WOULD GO AWAY; IT DID NOT, WORSENED.   AT 20K I WENT TO A DIFFERENT FORD DEALER FOR MY SERVICE AS THE ISSUE CONTINUED TO GET WORSE.  AT LOW SPEEDS OR COAST INTO ACCELERATION THE CAR WOULD JERK VIOLENTLY AT TIMES.  A KNOWN SEAL LEAK THAT HAD DAMAGED THE CLUTCH WAS FOUND. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS PROBABLY AN ISSUE FROM TIME-OF-PURCHASE SINCE I THERE WERE SIGNS OF LONG CONTINUED LEAKING AND CLUTCH WEAR.  AT 30K I WENT TO A DIFFERENT FORD SERVICE AND ASKED TO GO TO HAVE MY TRANSMISSION LOOKED AT AGAIN AS I FELT UNSAFE.  THE CAR WILL NEED A 2ND NEW CLUTCH REPLACEMENT.  HOWEVER... THE PARTS ARE ON BACKORDER FROM FORD AND WON'T BE AVAILABLE FOR 12 WEEKS!!  THAT'S 3 MONTHS WAITING TO REPAIR A NEW CAR UNDER WARRANTY!!!  I ABSOLUTELY HATE TO DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE I NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO BOLT FORWARD OR SLIP AND NOT ACCELERATE WHEN THE NEED IS URGENT.  I HAVE SPOKEN TO MANY MANY OTHER FOCUS OWNERS WHO HAVE SIMILAR NIGHTMARES, OUT OF POCKET COSTS FOR RENTALS DURING SERVICE AND LOST DAYS' WORK FOR SERVICE REPAIR.  I SKIMPED AND SAVED TO PAY CASH FOR THIS CAR AND IT IS HEARTBREAKING TO BE TOLD I HAVE NO RECOURSE.  PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE... HAVE SOMEONE LOOK INTO THIS SAFETY ISSUE AND LEMON OF MODEL TRANSMISSION.
