Very reliable car this far

This car has met all of my needs and expectations and I honestly couldn’t see myself in any other car at the moment. I am very satisfied with my purchase

Most reliable car

Awesome car until it got totaled. Great on gas. Great in snow. Would have last several more years had 180,000 miles on it. Trying to purchase another one or maybe a fusion.

More trouble than it's worth

This car is the worst I have ever owned. I have had one problem after another since I have had this car. Now it won't shift into 3rd and reverse went out.

Nice performer

I was very surprised at the amount of "Zip" it has, the acceleration is very good. The interior is very comfortable and the handling is really nice.

It could be because I got a bad car ...

I got my car at 50,000 miles. I?m currently at 94,000. I have had so many problems with this car. I will never buy another ford. First the car has no air in the summer, then the car overheated and has no heat in the winter. I?ve gotten a new heater core (very expensive) new thermostat, and radiator flush. It?s still running hot. On top of that a few months ago I had to replace the throttle body (again very expensive) because the car kept idling like it would shut off at red lights. I had a Ford Focus previous to this 2011, I had a 2009 with that same issue. Idling issues. To make it worst I have to change the brake drums in the back after just changing the discs in the front. When I tell people my throubles I?ve had they reply ?that?s a Ford for you, Ford stands for Fix Often Repeat Daily?

Good car for the daughter

I just bought it but it feels very tight and sound even though its 7 years old. Now all 3 of my kids own a Focus.

Reliability, Affordability & Style

Great value, style and affordability. Small car that has more of a medium feel to it. Great all around. Would buy another. Would highly recommend for commuters, students and those looking for a second car.

Reliable, sporty, and fun

Excellent car that is fun to drive, very zippy, and has a solid interior design. Not much to look at on the outside, but for the price range one of the better and more complete cars out there in my opinion. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a solo commuter car (not much space for passengers) or just something to get around the city - parallel parking is an absolute breeze.
