Hi Maria, transmission issues in Ford Fiestas are quite common and can be caused by various factors. The most common cause is dirty or low transmission fluid, so make sure to check and change the fluid if needed. Additionally, worn out clutch plates or a faulty transmission control module could also be the culprit. It's best to take your Fiesta to a mechanic for proper diagnosis and repair.

Hi Maria, first, try checking the transmission fluid to ensure it's at the correct level. Low transmission fluid can cause issues with shifting and can also lead to overheating. You can also check for any leaks or buildup of debris in the transmission. If none of these seem to be the issue, it might be a good idea to take your car to a Ford dealership or a trusted mechanic for further inspection.

Hey Maria, I've had a similar issue with a Ford Fiesta in the past. After researching and troubleshooting, I found out that the issue was due to a faulty transmission solenoid. If your car is consistently experiencing delays or slipping while shifting, this could be the case. It's best to get it replaced by a professional.
