My girlfriend has a 2013 Fiesta with the dual clutch transmission. This transmission is a complete nightmare. I'm sure many people have heard of this problem since its widespread on Fiestas and some Focus.
She has had it in to the dealer multiple times. They have updated the software a few times which has helped for a short amount of time.
She doesn't complain much about it since she doesn't really have any options at this point but she is now concerned for her safety. Today the CEL went on and it was bucking and jerking like crazy. When she turns the car of the CEL goes off and comes on intermittently. Of course we she can schedule an appointment at the dealer on her day off the light is usually off and they say the can't help.
Making a left turn requires here to wait until there is no traffic in sight since she is never sure how long it will take or if the transmission will engage. Its a really bad deal.
Does anybody know of a fix for this? Has Ford come out with a replacement yet? We really need to get this thing fixed. Any help, advice, or insights would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
