Hi

I'm thinking about purchasing a new Ford Focus Sports 2017. Ford has a deal on at the moment.

I understand previous models have had potential issues with the power shift transmission.

Does this issue still apply to the current 2017 models. Is there any other glaring issues to stay away from the focus outright.

Thanks

Hi there,
The new Focus has reverted back to a normal torque converter transmission and gone away from the Powershift.
So I wouldn't imagine there to be anymore problems, they look to be quite a nice car.
