I have posted about my fab mpg the last year of crazy commuting. 2012 sFe Focus. I have "only" had transmission issues. Ford recalled it or offered a fix from the shuttering, I took it in with in the first weekish of owning it. Through the 70,000 miles (crazy) miles in the last 30 months 50,000 in the last year, it has kept the issue and I got used to it. I got a recall letter a few months ago and got the car in this week. I won the lottery I guess, my car was on the rebuilt Transmisson List. Transmission/Clutch fluid will leak together. SO it is "fixed" now. The warranty was extended to 100,000 miles.
My ??? is, How do you feel about this? Would you feel comfortable to continue the commute in this car and feel secure that it is ok? I have reduced my drive to hopefully 3,000 ish a month. But still just me and my three dogs. I need new tires in 20,000 miles. I bought 60K mile tires at 30K. I tell myself it is a waste to get a new car as I am going to just mile it out again. I had a qoute for trade in at the dealer and also another dealer. I picked out a new car actually two different ones. But am I just worried about more issues with this car for no reason? I know the trade in value will just drop to nothing if I make it to 100,000 miles.
Did I mention I hate driving and cars!!!!
