2014 Ford Focus vibrates violently when accelerating?
So yes it has the dual clutch. My car has been fine since i've owned it for a year. Over the weekend however the temperatues plummeted and it snowed a little and the car has been acting strange. It doesent seem to accelerate fast no matter how hard i press the pedal. Also the transmssion has been so shaky and rumbly it feels like were having an earthquake. Whenever it starts to shake i try to accelerate harder to get it to go away but it doesent just becomes more violent (noticeable in gear 2 and 3 ). The car has 15 thousand miles what could be going on? I have not damaged it in any way just normal daily driving to work.
You might have a vaccum leak or a hose broke or came loose.
Those transmissions sometimes leak and wet up the clutch with ATF, making it judder.
It is still on warranty. Get a dealer to look at it.
- 2014 Dodge Dart vs 2014 Ford Fusion? Only ppl who know about cars or own one of the two! And if you can please specify which model. I just want to know which is better from looking at specs or tell me what you think if you own one!
- 2014 Chevy Impala or 2014 Ford Fusion or Taurus? It's going to be for college so I need a good reliable car that will last me a while which one would be best? Or Kia Optima
- My car shakes violently when the AC is on. What's wrong with it? Whenever the AC button in my car is on it shakes violently. It only does it when the AC button is on, not when the heat is on or when the fan is set all the way cold. What's wrong with it? It's a 2002 Ford Focus ZTS with 150000 miles on it
- Car vibrates when I come to a complete stop? I drive a 2001 Ford Focus and my parents bought the car for me in March of this year and it ran smooth and everything until about a month ago, maybe two months. Now whenever I come to a complete stop, it vibrates. It doesn't do it at all when I'm driving, only when the car is completely stopped. Does anybody know what could be wrong with it? I really don't have money to take it to a mechanic right now and don't want to have my parents pay for me to take it to a mechanic.
