2015 Ford B-MAX gears stiff or get stuck while driving

Car: Ford B-MAX
Year: 2015
Variant: Petrol
Categories: Gearbox & Clutch
Gears stiff to change from 1st to 2nd, even got completely stuck a couple of times and replaced the clutch. Gears were fine for a few weeks but the issue has started again. Seems to happen with 1st and 2nd gears. The gear stuck completely again and managed to coast to side of the road. Gear eventually released and was able to drive home. Drove fine for 30 mins, and on return trip gear stuck again and was able to get gear unstuck after coasting for a bit

I would take it back to whoever replaced the clutch for checking .It could be a fault with the clutch fitted ( dependent on what make and parts were fitted ) but should still be under warranty . Another possible cause could be a hydraulic fault , possibly master cylinder .Or get a check / report from another garage before doing so which will give you ammunition if faulty to help you with any warranty claim
