We bought our Focus in August 2011 and were pleased with it for 2 of the 2-1/2 years we had it. My wife drove about 90 miles a day for most of the first two years and all was well. It handled like it was on rails, was comfortable and the mileage was great. Highest I got was 45. We got used to the quirky shifting but when my wife changed jobs and did mostly city driving, the clutch became unreliable. We also had electronic issues. We were told by Ford that we needed a new clutch pack and that it would be in by the end of next month. That went on for 4 months. Fed up, we traded it at a big loss due to transmission issues. Then Ford called to apologize. We love our new Buick Verano!

Update from previous review. Still like it after driving a 2012 Mazda 3 SkyActiv for the last 2 weeks as a rental. The Mazda 3 SkyActiv seems to get slightly better gas mileage, but it's not as easy to live with as the Focus.
Great Car!

2012 Ford Focus Titanium 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 6AM)

Purchased for gas economy and comfort. Does what expected with fuel. Cost too much. It's really small inside but when compared with other cars same size I feel comes out on top. I am 5'4" and I bump my head getting in the car. Good to drive and handle. Relief on gas. Negatives. We loaded it. Being a titanium we added several options. We live all except we're screwed on the remote start to start the car from inside the house to heat the car on a cold day or cool it on a hot day. Basically it works until you get in the car and put on the brake to back up and the car cuts off. We were charged about $400 for this. Middle console too long knocks tops off drinks , trunk small
wish they would fix it now!

Wow, we just did a 420 mile roadtrip last thursday and couldn't get past 28.7 mpg and that was mostly interstate driving. took it in to dealer and they said it's just still trying to figure out your driving habits. WTH! and I don't like the jerky take off's we were told to drive it another1000-1500 miles and if it's still doing it to bring it in. it is alittle cramped inside compared to my 2005 focus. But otherwise I like the car .
