Other minor transmission & clutch problem

""Clutch has been replaced and the actuator too, both recalls.""

Anonymous A., MO (2014 Ford Focus SE 2.0-L 4 Cyl)

""This is a well-known problem with these dual-clutch transmissions. They don't know how to fix it. It is also referred to as transmission shuddering, but it seems to be the clutch that is the culprit. They replaced the clutch once, but they don't last but 4,000 - 5,000 miles. I don't fix it, because I am afraid I will get one that is worse than what I have, based on online reviews.""
