    Ford Fiesta 2012: Noisy transmission

    Ford Ford Advice Ford Fiesta Ford Fiesta Advice Ford Fiesta 2012

    My 2012 Ford Fiesta with 55,000km is another one with dual-clutch gearbox problems. I’ve ostensibly had the recall issue fixed, only to have the car returned worse than when I handed it over. It is not quite four years old and it sounds as if there are rocks in the transmission. I bought this little Fiesta as a second vehicle for my wife to run kids around and for them to learn to drive in and take on as it was to be a cheap little car to run. I’ve made more than 20 phone calls to my dealer and Ford Australia customer service. I’m sick of the run-around. Ford knows there are massive issues with the Fiesta and Focus so why are they sticking their heads in the sand?

    Ford has been working to help Fiesta owners with gearbox problems but obviously not well enough. This is ammunition for another attack and I hope to have some good news soon.
