To check the 2016 Ford Focus transmission fluid, watch: https://www.Youtube.com/watch?v=Pwn1w2RI6q4 The transmission fluid needs to be replaced every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. Along with fluid changes, terrible sounds will come from the transmission. Old transmission fluid will be awful to the ear. A worn out torque converter will cause a headache. The transmission is one of the most crucial parts of the vehicle. You will come into issues at some point. Hard shifts could come up and that is not good. You may experience shudders. The gears may become stuck. There might be jerking. If the transmission fluid leaks, that needs to be fixed quickly. Delayed shifts will cause acceleration issues. The transmission might slip.

Start the engine and then open the hood. Find the transmission dipstick and pull it out and wipe it off. Put the dipstick back in and pull it back out. The fluid should be within the hot range.
The way it was designed there is no dipstick. It has to be checked from underneath
