What are the common problems with the Ford Fiesta transmission?

I recently bought a used Ford Fiesta and I noticed some issues with the transmission. It jerks when shifting gears and I can feel a delay when accelerating. What could be causing these problems and how can I fix them?

Hi Samantha, these issues are common in older Ford fiestas. The transmission could be worn out or there could be a faulty sensor causing the jerking and delay. It's best to take it to a certified mechanic for an inspection and repair.

I had the same problem with my Ford Fiesta and it turned out to be a low transmission fluid level. Check the fluid first and if that's not the issue, it could be a problem with the transmission solenoid.
