You do realize that the vehicle has a dual clutch transmission right? Meaning that it will behave a lot like a manual in some ways.

First comment. Since when have jerks and jumps been normal for dual clutch transmission? Don't insult us. I took it back to dealer and heard this same story, plus some made-up stories about the battery (heard that one before re Fusion). My car finally revved over 4000 when shifting and sounded awful (at three months). With the usual "it's normal for a new model" they installed the appropriate Ford computer program so that now it shifts perfectly like any safe car AND gets better mileage than before. Automated dual clutch is a good design -- the programming has bad bugs.

psheldon - Did not insult in any way and not my intention. I also did not say that jerks and bumps were normal. All I said is that is a dual clutch will behave like a manual in some ways. Thats it. I read your review and it is obivous that your transmission is not acting normal, and something was wrong. I just hear all the time about how the transmission is crap when in reality most people don't even know that a dual clutch acts a little different compared to a traditional automatic.
