Used Ford Focus for Sale in Machesney Park, IL

As a divorced mom, I find dealerships intimidating. A friend referred me to Deb Boyden. I was surprised to find a woman knowledgeable about cars and even more surprised that she was willing to work with me and not force me into buying something that wasn't right for me and my kids. My credit wasn't the best, but Deb figured it out. She even met with me on her day off because it was my only free day. I highly recommend Deb and am so thankful to my friend for leading me to her!!

This car is a very reliable car, with good acceleration and good brakes. It includes cruise control and a backup camera. It is very cheap for its quality.

I love this car. I have the Titanium hatchback and it is super sporty and fun to drive. The interior is comfortable and everything is perfectly located for the driver's convenience. The push-button start and keyless entry mean no more fumbling for keys -- just leave them in a pocket or purse and go. Sony stereo sounds excellent with a subwoofer in the trunk. You can't go wrong with this model.

I needed a car that was reliable and got good gas mileage. Also have 2 children in college, so had to be inexpensive. Surprising comfort and extras (bluetooth + aluminum wheels) for the price. Great gas mileage. Nice looking vehicle as well. Hate to part with it.

I love the comfort and look of this car. It is perfect for what I need! It has all the "hands free" features which I love.

Perfect size for me. Loaded with all the cool new feature - sunroof, Bluetooth, heated seats and steering wheel. Excellent gas mileage. Loads of storage in the trunk.

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.

People are friendly and knowledgeable. Car runs great!

I love the comfort and look of this car. It handles the mountains very easily. That is a huge plus where I live. I recommend this car.

Purchased a 2018 VW Jetta 1 year ago. From the moment we first stepped on the lot to this day, we have had THE BEST customer service and followup experience ever! ( and we've purchased 12 new vehicles over the last 20 years from multiple dealerships) Everyone here, from every department (Sales, Finance, Service) are true professionals who ACTUALLY CARE about the customer! No matter what your future purchase plans are, GO HERE FIRST! You won't be disappointed! Special shout out to Lionel at the VW store! Thanks for everything. We'll definitely be back to see you!

it is very comfy and hopeful well have this for a while and look forward to dealing with these men that work at poway dealership in the future due to the amazing service

Henry and his team were very supportive of my needs. Henry went out of his way to not only make sure the car was as advertised, but he went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable with the car. Being out of state, I had to travel about 500 miles to see the car and finalize the deal. Having a previously bad experience buying a vehicle several years ago at a different dealership, Henry made me feel extremely confident in him and his integrity about the car. I would highly recommend Henry and Twins Auto and I am very happy with my purchase.

This car has been nothing but reliable and road worthy. Brand new brakes and tires as well as semi-synthetic oil changes recently done. Air and Cabin filter changed first week of April. Car is ready to go to a new owner.

Found a problem and fixed it during oil change. It was a long standing problem.

We bought a brand new and amazingly good looking inside and out 2014 Focus Titanium. The car was for my wife. She drove test the car. She fell in love and we took it. BIG MISTAKE! I drove it for the first time one week later and realize immediately what a defective dual transmission this car possesses. I think, the best way to describe it is like “having a teenager learning how to drive a standard shift transmission car for the first time”. When you start driving slowly from any stop, the car shakes in a jerky motion six or eight times before shifting. Every speed shift you can “VIOLENTLY” feel it, and occasionally a loud clank can be heard out of nowhere. All of this happens in Auto or Manual mode. In slow or fast speed. Don’t try to pass another vehicle because when you try, the transmission will shift 3 to 4 seconds after you press the accelerator. Three weeks after we acquired it, I took it to the Ford dealer. The technician drove it. The Service Manager drove it, and they both agreed that this transmission is a royal piece of $#!+, BUT, they can’t do anything about it because Ford Motors Co. says IT IS A NORMAL BEHAVIOR IN THIS CAR. They printed what Ford says and gave it to me. In it, acknowledges everything I mentioned but arguing that is perfectly normal. Normal in a car that just came out of the oven? That is BS! We tried to return the darn vehicle and the depreciation in five weeks made it impossible to afford. Now we’re stock with this beautiful car, which, other than the transmission, it is amazing. Sad to see how FMC mocks his customers, and don’t take responsibility. In 2017 we bought our 11th new car. A Chevrolet Malibu LT with dual transmission. Boy! What a difference. One of the best cars we have owned. Imagine that the transmission doesn’t exist. You can’t feel the car shifting at any speed. No more Ford for us.

These guys were top notch..small town dealership that truly cares about each potential customer that walks through their doors. They offered me a great price on my 2015 F250 on a trade and I ended up buying a 2018 F250 from them! Not to mention the new truck was close to 200 miles away, working on a deal and not having the truck present was nerve racking..I went to about 6 other dealerships in a month window and none of the other dealerships did what these guys did. What a wonderful experience dealing with this Ford store. Thank you to all that helped me get what I wanted. You guys Rock!! #BrydenFord #Durand

Excellent ride.. Very comfortable and safe car!! Extremly reliable.. Sleek and sexy but very very durable! I would buy this car over and over as I am loving It!!

This is the best experience I???ve had a dealership by far. Most places have thirsty, pushy sales people that hound you like you???re meat. The staff and sales people were down to earth and easy going. I bought my car the same day and will look to them when it???s time for another purchase.

This car has been awesome for me...great travel car that has handled mountain driving, light snow, mud and heavy rain all extremely well. The seats lay flat so storage is ample and access easy with a hatch. Very sporty looking too! My shepherd Romeo also approves!

Talked to Darrell about a used F150 Ford red. He made me feel very welcome and not pressured like other sales men. Great guy. This was a better experience at Bryden Ford than another dealership I was at. I was looking to see what you had in inventory on my visit. Ill tell my friends about this dealership and make sure they come in and see Darrell Frear.

This car has everything I was looking for. The heated seats, and mirrors is an excellent option. The stereo system sounds fantastic. It's very sharp looking and the gas mileage is a plus. I love this car.

My total Harvard Ford experience was professional & courteous. Vehicle was repaired on time. I always appreciate being recognized & remembered as a valued customer. Thank you !

I love the brakes and the take off. it is a smooth ride and does not feel like a small car. The trunk is small but serviceable but the overall look is sporty.

I was treated courteously and quickly. This is an absolutely great service group. The people are friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. If they don't have the answer they will find it. They are always willing to go above and beyond the call!! Vehicle was in and out sooner than expected and done properly. I have the greatest regard for Service Rep. Alisha, Manager Sean and Scot the OPS manager. They all go the extra mile.

I bought a 2014 with 47.ooo and had it 2 weeks and the double clutch went out and now the Ford dealer has it, I hope they fix it and it will last

I had an appointment for 7:00 am to have 2 tires put on the front of my truck, along with front end alignment. I was there, first thing in the morning....They asked what time I wanted it done....I said 2:00 as I brought my bicycle along to ride home. (I live 2 miles away), but sooner if possible and to call me when it was done. it was getting around noon, no word from the dealer, so I rode up to see what was happening. Much to my dismay, my truck was sitting in the parking lot, still with the old tires. It had not been moved. I asked a service man why my truck was still waiting....he said he would get someone on it right away. I went across to a McDonalds...had lunch, killed about 45 minutes. When I went back, my truck was still in the same spot. By now, it is almost 1:00 and the service manager said he would get someone on it as soon as they got back from lunch. I told him I needed it by 2:00 as I had to pick up my wife from work. I did not think they could finish it by then and just give me my keys and I would make another appointment. He assured me it could be done...maybe a little after 2. I said I would wait in the waiting room for it. At 1:30, I walked out in the parking lot and IT WAS STILL SITTING IN THE SAME SPOT. I asked again for my keys...this time they gave them to me and we made an appointment for the next day and Ben (device guy) promised me it would get right in. So I took it back the next day...They did take it back right away, installed the new tires, aligned the front end and filled all 6 tires (I have a dually) with nitrogen. They discounted the tires and gave me the alignment t and nitrogen for free, so I was very pleased in then end. Will I go back? Probably, but I will wait for my vehicle, letting them know I need it asap.

The car is comfortable for everyone in my family. It has enough room in the back for my kids to sit and not be squished. Its really good on gas.

Our leasing process was wonderful. Troy P. had answers to all of our questions and made sure we got the best deal possible on our 2016 Chrysler Town & Country. He was a joy to work with!

First off I would just like to say for all of the people complaining about the auto 6spd, this transmission is very unique. Its actually a manual transmission, It has a dry clutch pack and no torque converter. The shifting of the gears and clutch are just automated. I have seen so many complaints about it being shaky taking off from a dead stop but Ford says it's normal. You have to drive this car like a manuel, taking off from a dead stop you cannot baby the throttle. You have to blip the gas and roll into it just like you would in a normal manuel car. Again since it's a automated manuel when you are slowing down it uses engine breaking very effectively I may add. Breaking last seconded the computer disengages clutch so it's in neutral at thw mercy of the breaks. This transmission has adaptive learning so it watches your driving habits. When you baby the throttle consistantly from a dig so many times the computer learns that behavior and that's why the jerkiness happens. You cannot baby this car, for at "automatic" trans it sure is rev happy. My gf will drive it for awhile and it will start doing that bc she babys it. When I get into it I'm trying to drive it how I know it wants driven but its confused bc it knows my gf's driving habits. You can make it learn new habits driving it for awhile it will re-adapt back to you OR from a 10mph roll you pin the pedal to the floor till it hits 100. Everytime I do it the car is so much more peppy afterwards, throttle is more responsive, doesnt shift till abt 4500 instead of 2500, just feels more torquey and it stops the jerkiness it has learned from someone else. This car is a blast to drive once I researched how it likes to be driven, i must say its definitely a one of a kind driving experience. Because of the sophistication of the "automated manuel" transmission, when you buy this car they REALLY REALLY should educated people on how exactly this transmission works!!

I had wanted a Forester for several years. Then I became enamored with a used GMC Terrain SLT1. I was on my way to purchase a Terrain when I decided to stop by Janesville Subaru. Austin was outside and greeted me. We struck up a conversation and I told him I was on my way to buy a car. He asked if I was familiar with Subaru's. I have owned several and have been pleased with each one. When I described what I had been looking for in a Forester, Austin lead me a vehicle that had just been offloaded from the truck. It was exactly what I???d been looking for. NOTE: I am from Roscoe. I had been dealing with several other Subaru dealers over the past few days, but they did not have the number of cars Janesville Subaru had. Since I couldn't find "my car" I started looking at the GMC. Austin showed me their Terrains, then took me again to the new Forester. We did a simple pros/cons list. Over 40 years of driving I have had a number of vehicles in the GMC family. As I spoke about them I also recalled all the various mechanics who kept them running. My Subaru's never had much of a problem. My wife's Legacy has 68,000 miles with the only trips to a garage being for oil changes. I even drove that car up Mount Washington in New Hampshire. Austin is a great guy to deal with. He is not high pressure and he wants to get you into a great car that you can afford. He knows his Subaru???s as well as the used cars on the lot. It was a pleasure to work with him. He was polite, knowledgeable, and followed up with both personal emails and phone calls to ensure all was well and answer my questions. Austin is perhaps the best car sales person I have had the privilege of working with. He got me to move from a car I'd settle for, to the car I wanted. I am going to enjoy this Forester the next 10 years!

got the SE model with the 5 speed tranny, handles great, great acceleration , comfortable on the long haul, gets up to 40 mpg highway, 33 around town, only drawback is trunk space but it fits golf clubs, suitcase and full size cooler.

I bought a Nissan Sentra and i am very pleased with it Shane was my salesman, he was very knowledgeable and very polite he got me a great deal on the car, I have bought GM cars for many years and decided to see about something different and Shane made it very easy to pick the right car for me. Thank you for your patients with me and for your great service.

The Ford Focus is good overall car especially when saving gas, it’s also good car for a little family and the exterior is really nice

Thank Daniel Ranson for being so helpful! You were sure to answer all my questions and listen to my wants list...which was long:) Nice to know there are sales guys like you on this lot!

I own the Ford Focus SEL 2017 hatchback Ruby Red. I love how smooth it runs. Good on Gas. Sporty look and rims are nice. Everyone likes it. The interior is good looking. Specially the LED lights in the interior and you can change them to any color it has that option! The trunk space is pretty good, also what I like is that I can put the seats down and have lots of room in the back. That's what makes it better of a hatchback than a regular car trunk space. Bluetooth is on point. Also the app called FordPass is amazing you can know anything about your car.
