Hi peeps,Imentioned about our new c-max going back to ford dealer after only 600 miles on clock,they said my hubby had burned the clutch out! Whatever Ford !! Good news today 15th august got the car back.Ford have replaced the whole clutch machanism and motability have paid for the repair.The guy at fords said "we have a lot of people ring us about the clutch smelling on all new cars,theyre just so sensitive,try using your handbrake more,rather than clutch control" Funny that isnt it ,he was taught to drive how to use clutch control.When my hubby challenged the ford guy he also told him not to use the clutch for more than 2 seconds! Eh!! Having listened to dozens of friends and family,one of whom has over 100,000 miles on his clock and not ever had a problem with a clutch,Ford also said we were just unlucky,and if it is a fault with the new C-max he would expect to be having the same conversation in another couple of months!Fantastic eh!! Phew having gone through that we do love the comfort of the car,lovely smooth ride,especially over bad roads and dreaded potholes.Bright Blessings X
