What is a power transmission and what problems are you having with it. And isn’t this still under warranty?

I guess Julian means automatic transmission . The Fiesta has 3 year or 36000 mile warranty . But just asking what the fix is without explaining the problem makes it difficult to offer guidance.

This is a car with a known problem. It has been going on for years. [We tried to warn shoppers about it here at CarTalk](https://www.cartalk.com/blogs/car-talk-car-complaints/used-ford-fiesta-buy-year-not-one). There are multiple TSBs (technical service bulletins) for the Fiesta’s transmission. [Read them here](https://www.carcomplaints.com/Ford/Fiesta/2016/tsbs/). Best of luck.

the best fix to repair a Ford Fiesta is to purchase a better car…
