Used 2000 Ford Focus Sedan Consumer Reviews
One of the Lucky Ones ?
After reading some of these reviews I felt as if I needed to submit one to defend this car a bit! I'm not an avid supporter of any car make, rather a person who buys a car out of necessity! I drive alot! I've owned 7 new cars in the past and believe it or not,the Focus has been the best! Recalls don't bother me as long as the problems are corrected. This vehicle has 112,000 and still runs perfect. There may not be the same amount of zip when I first drove off the lot, but the Focus has been very good to me. There have been no major repair expenses other than brakes, tires, and a set of spark plugs and wires! So, don't believe all of the hype!
Great Car
I think the Focus is a great car for the money. Looking at some of the other reviews made me realize that people get, what they pay for. I have only had one problem with my Focus, and luckily my Brother is a Ford technican, and advised me the fuel pump was being recalled. In a little over a year I have about 50,000 miles on my Focus and am still loving it!!! Ford did a great Job!
Ford Focus
I realy love the design of the Focus. It lookds very good from all angles.
Ford Made a Boo Boo with the 2000 Focus
There have been numerous problems still occuring and Ford cannot fix them. Wiring seems to go bad a lot. I would never buy a ford again because of my experience with the ford focus
Mixed Emotions About This Car
Reading all the reviews, I feel lucky not to have so many repairs but I have had my share. My rear window power motor broke 2 times in a year and Ford wants $300 to fix again since the warranty expired. It has tape on to keep it up. Was hit in the front and back at low speed and held up great, can't say that about the Corolla that folded like a tent. Cramped front seat since I am 6 foot 2. I have 50,000 miles and the car hasnt had any major repairs but that is because I do routine maintenance and have a good mechanic. Wish car had more power and I wish everyday I upgraded to CD player instead of factory tape player. I thrash this car every day driving to LAX airport so it is my kick around car.
