[QUOTE="03Bite, post: 10597311, member: 61591"] I had an 08 With 1500 miles on it when I brought mine in to the local Ford dealer last year around this time and they tried to tell me that was normal for these cars. Now in my case mine was not slipping but chattering like hell on certain RPM take offs. I told them very nicely that I am a mechanical person and have never seen issues like this with a clutch chattering like this does. I also said very nicely...listen this is a 50,000 dollar car and an embarrassment that the clutch performs like this. I also stated that it is a safety issue in the fact that if I leave a stoplight or stop sign and this thing Chatters so hard it almost dies or the dash falls out in my lap and then some asshole that is 2" inch from my bumper rear ends me cause I slowed down on take off we are going to have a problem here. I also gave them a story on how my wife wants to drive the car but she was scared after she rode in it and it chattered so hard. The service manager and service advisor both rode in the car and came back and said if it was my car I would want it replaced also. Mine only had the chatter symptoms but The service manager said it also ground going into first and reverse with a little wink ;-) Needless to say 3 weeks later then installed the complete 2010 clutch and all problems were solved. This clutch was so smooth and different from the 08 ceramic I had it was like night and day. I would say if they don't want to help you take it to a different dealer and stop talking with women that are in the service dept. :-D [/QUOTE]
