Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Well, as to the Fiesta/Focus transmissions' notorious failures
a topic I'lll fill in when I decide whether a certain 2011 Fiesta shall be in my garage (in not too distant future, given the tea leaves) ...
I suggest due diligence that Fooord has ackshully/fully/forever FIXED the auto-shift gearbox on the newest incarnations.

[Hey, it's candy-apple red, though; not My first choice..]

They really screwed-up that design, and over >5 YEARS of excuses and 'fixes' which didn't last..
(I may end up with an ambulance chaser split on a Buy It Back at original retail kinda ploy.)

'Course if you have a stick/manual?

uh ..never mind. They didn't come up with a way to screw up something that simple. Yet.
New Focus may just be a way for...
Ford to "fuck us" as the Cajuns might say. :)

"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."
