Hey guys, lurked these forums a few times before looking for wheels ideas but not i have a big issue and was hoping to maybe get an idea of what i'm looking at here. While driving last night, i went to upshift to 3rd during normal driving, when i pulled out of 2nd the shifter felt off and then wouldn't shift into 3rd. I pulled off and couldn't shift into any gear. Jiggled with it a while and was able to get 1st and 2nd and was able to make it home. After playing a little longer by sliding the shifter all the way to the left where it became resistant but seemingly past where 1st and 2nd are, i now have 3rd, 4th,5th, and reverse working fine, but not 1st and 2nd. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi ttujames,

That does sound like a headache! I suggest having your dealer diagnose your Focus. They are best able to determine why you are having shifting issues. If I can be of any help, please let me know. Have a great day!
