Ford PowerShift Transmission Subject To New Class Action Lawsuit In USA

Owners of Ford Fiesta and Focus models in the United States have launched a class action lawsuit against the automaker surrounding complaints against the problematic PowerShift dual-clutch automatic transmission fitted to those cars.

The suit identified owner problems including unusual noise and shuddering, delays in downshifting, slipping, jerky operation and allegations of premature internal wear, and sudden or delayed acceleration.

The law firm behind the class action, Stern Law, is seeking financial compensation for Ford owners of affected vehicles built between 2011 and 2016, citing ineffective software updates and repeaed measures in failing to rectify owner issues.
