Hi all
This is my first post on this forum and hence if there is anything that is not as per protocol please excuse my noob-ness I am planning to buy a Ford Focus 2012 Auto (deposit paid) So after paying deposit for the car, in all my excitement I was reading about thr car on internet, (I know I should have done this before handing over thr deposit but thats done now.) I came across issues with Ford Focus's auto transmission for cars between 2010 and 2016, now am worried about the car. Its 2012 model and 50k kms on clock. It drives great and had nothing to worry about when I test drove it. Since am buying it off a Hyundai Store they are giving me 3 months warranty and all other statutory bits. My questions - * should I go ahead with the deal or request Hyundai to return me the deposit? * Is it perfectly ok to run auch a car without any issues? * If there is any issue in future what are my options? * And if the suggestion is to no go, then can I ask Hyundai to return my entire deposit? Please help. Thanks Muds! |

Yeah nah.
Take it back. We have a 2012 powershift and yes its had 3 clutches all under warranty and yes warranty for 7 years I think or 160000kms but nah not worth it if teh transmission goes off. Just get a normal torque convertor auto. I drive VW group equivalent of powershift called DSG again no they just drive oddly compared to a torque convertor auto. |
