First new car and so far. Never looking back

I say it is a solid car. Its quite quick, fuel efficient and teh 4 banger is shared between the st and the rs ( of course the higher performance models have additional stuff that gets tthem more power). The car is super comfortable, a bit low for my 6 foot 3 frame, and the manual trans is so smooth.

2 new Focus, will never buy a Ford again !!!!!!!!

Owned a 2014 with a auto trans that bucks like a bronco after multiple attempts to get it fixed. 2.2 L motor I believe, very good motor but the trans issues were horrible. Traded it in on a 2018 sedan SE with a better auto transmission,not realizing it had a 1.0 3 cylinder engine till I got it home. OK, I guess well give it a try. Transmission doing fine at 48000 miles but the motor has leaked oil from two weeks after we bought it. Been to the dealership for repairs multiple times to fix oil leaks. The 2014 was my fist new car purchase ever with the 2018 being my 2nd. I will never buy a Ford again !

Surprised with performance

Surprised how sporty the car is; handling, acceleration, and drivability. Very pleased with the interior design and seat comfort. In my opinion, this car is very good value for the money.

I love this car!

I have loved the quiet motor, comfy seats, legroom for my tall husband and sync capabilities and music system. It has a quick get up and go if I need it as well. The gas mileage has been good also. Overall good car!

Safe, reliable, fun to drive

This car exceeded my expectations. It is the nicest, cleanest, newest car I have ever owned. I feel incredibly comfortable in it. It rides whisper quiet and incredibly smooth.

Great value

This car will be perfect for us. Nice to get a new car and a great deal. We will get many years of enjoyment. Happy that it's an American made car from a company that didn't take a buyout.

It's a very reliable car

This car has everything I ask for in a vehicle. Power lock and power windows. Camera, bluetooth access, satellite radio. The interior and exterior was the color I was looking for.
