Shudder occurs when pulling away Is it likely to worsen on this model which is still under warranty until mid Sept.. Doubt that local dealer where purchased has the capacity to repair. Has Ford overcome this problem? Can I insist dealer takes car back? Thank you Vicroymann

If its under warranty, take it back to the dealer to be fixed, that is what your warranty is for, surely?

If he fixes it, end of problem, if he can't/won't then you'll need to take it elsewhere and try to get him to contribute - could be difficult!

i had the same issue i also had a squeak and quealing sound. Ford took a look under warrentee and threatened me with a £400 inspection charge if they deemed it wear and tear. what they found was the dual mass flywheel had cracked and was destroying the clutch and this left me stranded at 1am on the motorway with a 2week old baby, best thing to do is to get it looked at before it causes you some problems
