Clutch needs to be replaced at 77,000 miles. This is a related issue with Ford Focus vehiclesa transmission. I was never told that the transmissions were an issue when I purchased this vehicle. I took it to ford and they said itas wear and tear instead of addressing the issue that the transmission is bad. They wanted $4000 for repairs. I paid $17k cash for this car. The car does not switch gears and makes grinding noises when driving or coming to a stop.
