I've had this car for 6 months, and I'm very impressed. It has everything one needs as far as I'm concerned. I have an automatic, a/c, a cd player, clock, arm rest, cup holders, I can look up my miles per gallon, trip miles, the trunk is a good size considering the size of the car itself, the gas mileage is good, and not that it matters, but I absolutely love the color of my car as well (they have nice options). My favorite feature of the car, is that I feel I'm driving a more expensive vehicle, with the way it drives and handles.. very tight. It really is a fun car to drive. It has smooth driving, and great pick up, and.. it's American made, it's a good value, especially in this economy

I bought this 2011 Ford Focus in March 2011 and have had three times already that it has been back to the Dealer for repairs. Once it died and left me stranded on the highway and the dealer couldn't figure out why. Another time it had a rattle and the dealer said it was because a part was left off at the factory. Now the passenger door wont open from inside or out and I have to take it to the dealer again. With all of the hype about how great a car this is supposed to be, I am really disappointed.

It's a love, hate relationship

Mechanically it's a nice car. Haven't had too many problems that weren't from my own neglect. The torque converter did die on me twice in one month though. The interior is what ruins it for me. The door panel has broken leaving me with the window controls just hanging. Everything is held in my barely half an inch thick plastic that gets super ridged and prone to breaking in the cold. The dashboard started vibrating to the point I hate driving it. The center air vent popped out randomly while i was driving and won't go back in due to a few peices that broke. The seats are not the most supportive, I find my knees and back aching after driving more than 30 minutes. Overall it'll get you from point A to point B, but it's going to be uncomfortable and annoying.

Coming up on 200K miles, Mobil 1 since free 5,000 mile oil change. Routine maintenance, never anything major, I’ve had no car payments for six years! Best car I’ve ever owned! I have a friend who put over 500K miles on his Focus !

This car has been a great purchase. I bought it for my son when he got his driver's license. He is still driving it and he loves it.
