Why is my Ford Fiesta struggling with acceleration?

I recently purchased a used Ford Fiesta and I've noticed that it's having trouble accelerating. It feels like it's struggling to shift gears and get up to speed. Is this a common issue with Ford Fiestas?

Hi David, yes, this is a common issue with Ford Fiestas. It could be due to a faulty transmission or an issue with the fuel system. I recommend taking it to a certified Ford mechanic for a diagnostic test to pinpoint the exact cause.

Hi David, I have a Ford Fiesta as well and experienced the same issue. It turned out to be a problem with the spark plugs. Once they were replaced, my car ran like new. I suggest having your spark plugs checked and replaced if needed.

Hi David, changing the air filter can also improve your car's acceleration. A dirty air filter can restrict air flow, causing the engine to struggle. Try replacing the air filter and see if that makes a difference.
