2000 Ford Focus complaints

MANUAL TRANSMISSION HAS DIFFICULTY SHIFTING INTO REVERSE, GETS STUCK IN SHIFT AND GRINDS GEAR, SOMETIMES WON'T GO INTO REVERSE, TAKES SOME PLAY OF THE CLUTCH TO GET THE SHIFTER INTO REVERSE. *ET

I WAS DOWNSHIFTING TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT WHEN I HEARD A POP AND THEN SOMETHING FELL AT MY FEET. I TOOK THE CAR TO A LOCAL FORD DEALER. THEY SAID THAT IT WAS THE CLUTCH TENSION SPRING THAT BROKE, AND THEY HAVE SEEN THE SAME PROBLEM 2 TIMES PRIOR. I CALLED FORD AND THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM.

OVERHEATING/ TRANSMISSION SLIPPING/ VIBRATION. *AK

CONSUMER WAS IN TRAFFIC, WENT TO APPLY GAS PEDAL AND VEHICLE TOOK OFF WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. DEALERSHIP WASN'T NOTIFIED. *AK

PE00020, TIRE TREAD SEPARATION: WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 45 MPH TREAD ON THE DRIVER'S FRONT FIRESTONE FIREHAWK TIRE CAME OFF. DRIVER WAS ABLE TO CONTROL VEHICLE. TIRE SIZE P19560R15. ORIGINAL TIRE EQUIPMENT ON A 2000, FORD, FOCUS. TIRE MILEAGE 9,000. FIRESTONE AND FORD WAS CONTACT ABOUT THE TIRE. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK *SLC

THE CLUTCH PEDAL SPRING SPLIT IN HALF WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT ON A ROAD WITH A POSTED SPEED LIMIT OF 45 MILES AN HOUR. IT WAS AT NIGHT IN A TROPICAL STORM WITH LOCAL HEAVY RAINS WHILE I WAS IN FLORIDA. THE POLICE PARKED A CRUSIER BEHIND ME WITH IT'S LIGHTS ON AND EVEN WITH THIS PROTECT WE WERE ALMOST REAR ENDED A COUPLE OF TIMES BEFORE WE COULD PUSH THE CAR OFF THE ROAD. THE MECHANIC IN FLORIDA SAID THAT FORD KNOWS OF THE CLUTCH SPRING PROBLEEM - THE ORIGINAL SPRING IS TO STIFF AND THE REPLACEMENT PART IS MANUFACTURED WITH MORE FLEXIBILITY. IF THIS IS TRUE FORD SHOULD RECALL THE FOCUS' WITH THE BAD CLUTCH SPRING BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. MY WIFE AND I MISSED A DAYS WORK BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. AS FAR AS THE WINDSHIELD IS CONCERNED IT ISN'T SEALED PROPERLY AND ALLOWS WATER TO ENTER THE CAR. FORD IS GOING TO TAKE THE WINDSHIELD OUT AND RESEAL IT. AGAIN THIS IS INCONVENIENT AND REALLY DISAPPOINTING FOR A NEW CAR TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. THE CAR ALSO HAS TWO OTHER PROBLEMS THAT AREN'T SAFETY RELATED. THE RADIO BROKE AND FORD REPLACED IT AND THE PASSENGER SEAT HAD A BROKEN PART THAT IT TOOK OVER 4 MONTHS TO GET A PART FOR. *AK

VEHICLE OVERHEATED, AND ENGINE COOLANT LIGHT CAME ON. THERE WAS NO COOLANT LEAK. DEALERSHIP IS AWARE OF THE VEHICLE'S PROBLEMS. *AK

CONSUMER WAS DRIVING AT 4-5 MPH COMING FROM A DEAD STOP TO MAKE A TURN , TURNED A LITTLE WIDER AND HIT CURB, LEAVING A MARK SIZE OF QUARTER ON TIRE. DUAL AIR BAGS DEPLOYED, CAUSING LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL. STEERING LOCKED UP, VEHICLE WENT OVER THE CURB. TIRE DID NOT BLOW, AND THERE WAS VERY LITTLE DAMAGE. FRONT WINDSHIELD COMPLETELY SHATTERED DUE TO AIRBAGS DEPLOYING. DEALER MADE A STATEMENT THAT THERE WAS AIRBAG SENSOR IN THE WHEEL. *AK

A SPRING UNDER THE CLUTCH WILL BREAK OFF AND HIT DRIVER IN THE LEG WHICH ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THIS PART HAS BROKEN 3 TIMES WITHIN A 5 MONTH PERIOD. CONSUMER STATED THEY WERE NOT FIXING DEFECT, ONLY REPLACING PART WITH THE SAME DESIGN.*AK

REAR DRUM BRAKE SQUEAL, DEALER REPLACED SHOES WITHIN TWO DAYS SQUEAL WORSE THAN ORIGINAL. DEALER CALLED FORD TECH HOTLINE WAS ADVISED "CONCERN IS UNDER INVESTIGATION BY ENGINEERING" DEALER THEN SANDED DRUMS AND SHOES, PROBLEM RETURNED AGAIN WITHIN TWO DAYS. *AK

REAR BRAKE DRUMS SQUEEKING WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED. THREE DEALER TRIPS-FINALLY FIXED. ALSO WATER ON FRONT PASSENGER'S FLOOR FROM AIRCONDITIONING. DEALER FOUND A MISSING ELBOW PART. FIXED... I SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A CIVIC.*AK

DEFROSTER MALFUNCTIONS. FRONT TIRES MAKES SQUEAKING NOISE, KEY GET STUCK IN IGNITION AND TRUCK LOCK WHEN TRYING TO GET OUT. *YH

I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR 2 MONTHS, IT HAD 55 MILES ON IT WHEN I PURCHASED IT. I WAS GOING 25 MILES DOWN SOUTHERN PARKWAY AND THE TIRE BLEW OUT. WHAT I MEAN TO SAY IS THAT THE TIRE LITERALLY FELL APART. I HAVE PICTURES OF THIS, IT IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE SEEN TO BE BELIEVED.( DOT NUMBER: DE559P TIRE SIZE: P125/60R15 )

ACCORDING TO TOWTRUCK DRIVER, THIS WAS THE NINTH FORD FOCUS IN ONE WEEK HERE IN TUCSON, ARIZONA, TO HAVE IGNITION PROBLEMS. THE IGNITION/LOCK CYLINDER FAILS, PREVENTING ABILITY TO START VEHICLE. *AK

THROTTLE DOES NOT RETURN TO THE IDLE POSITION WHICH CAUSES UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION. NHTSA RECALL 99V346000/MANUFACTURER'S 99S35. MANUFACTURE WAS NOT AWARE OF THE RECALL. ALSO, CONTACTED DEALER, DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. *AK

MY 2000 FORD FOCUS WAS PURCHASED ON MARCH 29, 2000, IT WAS WRECKED ON APRIL 23, 2000, THERE WAS AROUND 11000 IN DAMMAGE REPORTED. IT WAS FINISHED BEING REPAIRED AROUND AUGUST FIRST. SINCE THEN THERE HASN'T BEEN A PROBLEM. ON SEPTEMBER 16TH AT 10:30 NAM MY CAR WAS LEFT RUNNING AT A GAS STATION. UPON RETURN I PUT THE CAR INTO DRIVE AND IT JUST MADE A GRINDING NOISE. THE DEALERSHIP, NOURSE FORD IN DELAWARE, SAYS THAT IT IS THE CLAP ON THE DRIVE SHAFT. THEY SAID IT IS NOT CAUSED FROM THE ACCIDENT. HOW CAN SOMETHING THIS SERIOUS JUST HAPPEN TO A BRAND NEW CAR. I THINK IT WAS CAUSED BY THE ACCIDENT. ARE THERE ANY STATISTICS ABOUT THE 2000 FORD FOCUS?

MY FRONT BRAKES SQUEAL, DRAG, AND NOW JERK WHEN APPLIED. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER . NO RESULTS, FEEL BRAKES ARE DEFECTIVE - DEALER WILL NOT LET ME TALK WITH FORD REP.- WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF OTHER FOCUS OWNERS HAVING SAME PROBLEM- I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD- REQUEST RECALL. THANK YOU .

ON FOUR OCCASIONS SINCE PURCHARE VEHICLE COMPLETELY STOPPED WITH DASHBOARD LIGHTS FLASHING WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. DEALER REPLACED THE BATTERY, THE ALTERNATOR. EACH TIME RETURNING THE CAR WHICH ONCE AGAIN SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING.*AK

WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK POSTION AND TURNED OFF, THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE ON ITS OWN . THE ENTIRE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WAS IN FLAMES. WHILE ON FIRE THE CAR STARTED AND ROLLED FORWARD OVER A CURB INTO A BUILDING (NOT CAUSING DAMAGE TO BUILDING). IT LOOKS AS THOUGH IT WAS NOT ELECTRICAL BECAUSE MANY OF THE WIRES AND FUSES INSIDE THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN SHORTED OUT. IT IS BEING INVESTIGATED BY THE MANUFACTURER. THIS IS A SERIUOS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT, IT SPONTANEOUSLY CAUGHT FIRE ON ITS OWN . THE VEHICLE IS PLANNED TO BE TOTALLED.*AK

CONSUMER RENTED A CAR FROM BUDGET RENTAL. VEHICLE LOCKED UP, AND DRIVER WAS NOT ABLE TO TURN OFF OR START VEHICLE. WHEN THIS HAPPENED, ELECTRICAL DOORS WOULD NOT OPEN. CONSUMER HAD TO CLIMB OUT OF WINDOW, AND CAR JUST DIED. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON 4 DIFFERENT FORD, FOCUSES THAT CONSUMER HAD RENTED. CONSUMER FEELS THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT COULD LOCK UP ON THE HIGHWAY. *AK

CONSUMER WAS TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY AND WAS PASSING ANOTHER VEHICLE, VEHICLE ACCELERATED, AND IT MADE A SQUEALING SOUND. HE WOULD HAVE TO APPLY BRAKES AND TURN VEHICLE OFF. HE COULD FEEL THAT VEHICLE WAS TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM HIM. *AK

VEHICLE EXPERIENCED ERRATIC SURGING WHICH CAUSED SUDDEN ACCELERATION/ JUMPING OUT OF GEAR, AND TAKING OFF INTERMITTENTLY. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON FIVE OCCASIONS, AND DEALER WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE THE CAUSE. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER DETAILS*AK

I HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY DISSATISFIED WITH THIS FORD PRODUCT. I DIDN'T PUT MORE INFORMATION IN THIS REPORT BECAUSE I WASN'T SURE I WAS DOING IT RIGHT. I PLAN TO RETURN THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOP AGAIN TODAY BECAUSE LAST TIME IT WAS THERE, THEY FIXED THE IDLE, WINDOW, AND NOISY SUSPENSION...GUESS WHAY, I STILL HAVE ALL THOSE SAME PROBLEMS!!!

BOTH FRONT PLASTIC HOUSING COVERS FOE SEAT BELT RETRACTORS ARE BREAKING/FALLING APARTS. DEALER NOTIFED AND MAKING REPAIRS. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER DETAILS:*AK

NATIONWIDE INSURANCE HAS RULED A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, AUTO BODY SHOP INVOVLED ALSO AGREED, FORD MOTOR COMPANY HAS YET TO REVIEW OR ACKNOWLEGE ANY ERROR.

OVER A PERIOD OF ABOUT 3 DAYS AND 200 MILES THE STEER WHEEL BECAME LOOSE AND INCREASING AS CONTINUED TO DRIVE. DEALER TOOK WHEEL APART AND TIGHTENED.

THIS ENGINE PROBLEM IS CONSTANT SINCE THE TIME I BOUGHT IT. ENGINE VIBRATES FROM SLIGHT TO SEVERE WHEN AT AN IDLE. SOMETIMES WHEN COMING TO A STOP IT THREATENS TO STALL, BUT DOES NOT, BUT VIBRATES AND SHUDDERS CONSTANTLY. I'VE TAKEN IT SEVERAL TIMES TO THE DEALER AND NO HELP OR SOLUTIONS HAVE BEEN MADE. I'M AFRAID THAT THIS WILL TURN INTO A SAFETY HAZARD FOR ME AND OTHER DRIVERS, BECAUSE IT IS GETTING WORSE AND COULD END UP STALLING.

VEHICLE HESITATES ON A HILL DURING ACCELERATION AND THE MILEAGE PER GALLON OF GASOLINE IS VERY POOR. *MJS

CAR WAS TAKEN TO DELAERSHIP IN APRIL REGARDING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE CAR. THEY STATED THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS. I CANNOT TELL IF THE NOISE IS COMING FROM ONE OF THE REAR WHEELS

REPEATED ATTEMPTS IN DEALING WITH FORD SERVICE, CUSTOMER SERVICE AND MANAGEMENT (REGIONAL AND CENTRAL OFFICES) HAVE FAILED TO CORRECT THESE PROBLEMS. DISCREPANCY IN DOCUMENTATION BY THOMASON DAMEROW FORD SERVICE DEPARTMENT IN WHAT I WAS TOLD WAS DONE TO THE CAR VERSUS WHAT WAS DOCUMENTED. I WAS TOLD VERBALLY THAT CERTAIN CORRECTIONS WERE MADE TO THE CAR BUT THESE WERE NOT DOCUMENTED. FOR EXAMPLE, I WAS TOLD BY CHAD THE EVENING SERVICE MANAGER THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CRANK SHAFT DAMPENER YET THIS WAS NOT DOCUMENTED WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR AND INFORMED DEALER I WOULD PURSUE LEMON LAW. DEALER HAD CAR FOR 30 DAYS IN APRIL AND I WAS TOLD PARTS WERE ON BACK ORDER. REGIONAL MANAGER WAS TO HAVE CALLED ME BACK BUT DID NOT. SERVICE MANAGER CONTACTED ON 08/22/2000 AND 08/23/2000 REGARDING REPEATED PROBLEMS BUT HE ONLY SEEMED TO BE CONCERNED WITH DOCUMENTATING OUR TELEPHONE CONVERSATION. SERVICE MANAGER STATED HE DID NOT KNOW THE STATUS ON THE BACK ORDERED PARTS BUT THAT HE WOULD CALL ME BACK BUT HE HAS NOT. I INFORMED HIM THAT CAR CONTINUES TO STALL WHILE DRIVING. DEALER PROVIDED WITH NEW PHONE AND ADDRESS ALTHOUGH THEY WERE TO HAVE CONTACTED ME A FEW MONTHS AGO BEFORE I MOVED YET FAILED TO DO SO SINCE APRIL 30,2000. CAR HAS SINCE STALLED, I AM VERY AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AS THE CAR WILL NOT EVEN REACH ACCEPTABLE AND A SAFE SPEED TO MERGE WITH HIGHWAY TRAFFIC. I WILL NOT USE THE CRUISE CONTROL AS IT SEEMS TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN EVEN AFTER THE CRUISE CO

FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED, CAUSING SECOND DEGREE BURNS TO PASSENGER'S LOWER ARMS AND WRIST.*AK

WHILE TURNING AT A CORNER ABOUT 15 MPH ANOTHER VEHICLE CAME OUT OF A LOT, STRICKING CONSUMER'S VEHICLE ON THE RIGHT FRONT. UPON IMPACT, BOTH AIR BAGS DEPLOYED VIOLENTLY AND BURNED CONSUMER HAND. CONSUMER WAS TAKING TO HOSPITAL. *AK

WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 20 MPH CONSUMER REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE, AND BOTH AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. HOWEVER, CONSUMER FELT LIKE AIRBAGS WENT OFF AT A VERY LOW SPEED. PASSENGER'S SIDE AIRBAG SHATTERED FRONT WINDSHIELD, AND THERE WAS GLASS EVERYWHERE. CONSUMER FELT THAT IF ON HIGHWAY AND WINDOW BUSTED, GLASS COULD EASILY GET INTO CONSUMER'S EYE. *AK

WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY THERE WAS A FIRE IN THE DOOR ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE. OWNER WAS ABLE TO PUT OUT THE FIRE. THERE WAS A 95% CHANCE THAT VEHICLE WOULD BE TOTALLED. *AK

SUSPENSION IS HARD WHEN DRIVING , VEHICLE SWINGS FROM LEFT TO RIGHT, AND THERE IS A RATTLING NOISE. ALSO, SEATBELT ON PASSENGER'S SIDE BROKE, AND WHEN APPLYING BRAKES, VEHICLE WANDERS TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT. *AK

VEHICLE ACCELERATES WHEN APPLYING SPEED PEDAL. IF HE DOESN'T APPLY BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN, VEHICLE WILL CONTINUOUSLY SPEED UP FASTER. HE HAS TO PUT VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL, AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. SOMETIME IT WORKS AND SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T WORK. *AK

INTERMITTENTLY ENGINE REVVS UP TO 700 RPM WHEN COMING TO A STOP. THIS COULD CAUSE A CRASH. PROBLEM WAS REPORTED TO DEALERSHIP. AN ADJUSTMENT WAS MADE ON THE IDLE. HOWEVER, CONSUMER WAS STILL EXPERIENCING A PROBLEM WITH VEHICLE.*AK

WHEN THE DRIVER BRAKES THE CAR WHILE IN CRUISE CONTROL IT DISENGAGES, BUT WHEN THE RESUME BUTTON IS PRESSED THE CAR HESITATES A FRACTION OF A SECOND AND THEN SURGES FORWARD DANGEROUSLY AS THE CRUISE CONTROL YANKS THE CAR TOWARD THE SET SPEED WITHOUT GRADUAL ACCELERATION. CONSUMER DROVE FORD FOCUS TO TEST THE CRUISE CONTROL AND FOUND THAT IT PERFORMED THE SAME. NLM

THE AIR CONDITIONER VALVE FAILED CAUSING CONDENSATION TO LEAK UNDERNEATH THE FLOOR MAT OF THE DRIVERS SIDE THUS RESULTING IN MILDEW FORMATION AND DETERIORATION OF THE FLOORBOARD. NLM

THE CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER FAILED. *MJS

CONSUMER BOUGHT VEHICLE IN FEBRUARY AND AT 2700 MILES FRONT BRAKES MADE A SQUEAKING AMND GRINDING NOISE. SHE HAD TAKEN VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP MORE THAN ONCE.

POPPED OUT OF GEAR AT HIGH SPEED, HAD TO HOLD THE SHIFTER TO KEEP IT IN GEAR AND AVOID ACCIDENT. AFTERWARD, IT WAS DIFFICULT TO GET THE SHIFTER TO GO INTO ANY GEAR WITHOUT GRINDING NOISE, NO REVERSE AT ALL. HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALER. DEALER SAID THEY WOULD REPLACE THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION, THEN LATER THEY SAID FORD KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND RECOMMENDED AN ADJUSTMENT TO THE LINKAGE. *AK
