I bought this car in August of 2014 from the dealer and drove it off the lot with 10 miles on it. I now have around 39,400 miles in 26 months. I also have the 5 speed manual transmission. The only issues I have had with the car were replacing a tail light bulb and then 2 tires because of nails. It is peppy for a small car and has more horsepower than the other cars in its class, (which is something I looked for). On interstates going the speed of traffic on open highways I average 35.5 mpg. On 2 lane highways with a lower speed limit I have averaged between 39 and 44 mpg of 200 mile round trips. It handles well in all types of weather. The AC cools off the car quickly in the hot days of summer. The bluetooth syncs easily with my phone, however I have had to resync it once. The legroom is the back is a little poor but it is a small car. The resale value of the car is poor because of issues with automatic transmission however but the manual transmission editions are reliable and fun to drive. I would easily consider buying one with a manual transmission again.

Bought a 2014 Focus - need I say more. Clutch had to be replaced 3x within first yr and a half. Salesman knew dam well what he was selling. My warranty has expired on this used piece of crap. Can't afford another car right now. WILL NEVER BUY FORD AGAIN.

I hated this car because of its transmission issues. I traded it in for a 2016 Focus in September, 7 months after I purchased the 2014, I was told that the 2016 did not have the same transmission. I lost money on the trade-in because Ford had just issued a recall on the cars but Ford would not replace the transmission unless you broke down. I have had the 2016 for two years and I love it. Great pick up, features and comfort. I wish I had just purchased the new one from the beginning. Just got rid of the 2016 Focus. Starting to feel that it was hesitating which shouldn’t happen. Day after I sold it, I received a recall notice. Piece of junk. Bought a Kia.

Had 180 HP and a regular transmission like the 2010 focus. Great car, except for the trans that skips in between 1st and 2nd driving in city. Awesome on the highway though. Update 4/7/19 - after a complete transmission replacement in December of 2018 the car runs great and with no additional transmission flaws, I think Ford has improved their replacement parts for this issue

well the car looks good but be careful . the first problem you will get is going to be the transmission, the shifting is rough and it will need to figure whether it needs to shift or not..... de careful in traffic it will give you a backache. the update you will get from the dealership is not very good since they are not equipped with the issue and the warranty is extended to some parts but all the parts that need to be fixed that is if you over 5/60k warranty part for powertrain. When it comes it to resale that's a hole another story. the car drops in price massive when it comes to trade it or sell at least 4k-6k. the Bluetooth setup is okay but you will need to reconnect it overtime since it will not do that and also understand what your saying. I do not recommend any to buy this car not worth it. I also went through 3 transmission over the time I had the car an average of 10k miles . I had a total of 16 repair on the car which made it an average of 1.85 which comes out to every 2months in the shop (owning it for 28months).
