I was driving home and it started to shift incorrectly and luckily I was closer to home. By the time I had to turn into my driveway it quit shifting all together. My door locks do not lock, I've had to bungee the rear doors together. My mirrors do not work. Also the fuel gauge doesn't read correctly.

I purchased my vehicle October 14,2020 from day one every time, I put gas in it, it stalled to crank and you could smell a rotten egg smell. I would have to sit and wait and press the gas numerous of times before the car started. My driver side back door came flying open the same day and would not latch back to close. Here it is November 28, 2020 my car starts smoking really bad and now won't even crank up to drive. I paid 4,056 cash for a car I can't even enjoy.

I began to notice my vehicle having lighting issues, including dimmer inside dome lights, flickering license plate lights, and it was pointed out to me that my back up lights weren't functional at all. I was parked parallel with other vehicles in a parking lot. Then after starting my vehicle, I shifted my automatic transmission into reverse going only about 2 mph when the vehicle began to beep, along with a warning that my luggage compartment door was open. In the situation, the beeping was very distracting and could have increased the risk of crashing. I immediately re-parked my vehicle so that I could investigate. I opened, then firmly closed all 4 of my doors, then tired to open the trunk, only to find that my trunk wouldn't open. The beeping persisted until I pressed the ok button on my steering wheel. I was able to drive my vehicle home safely, although the warning remained on my display the entire drive home. My trunk wouldn't open when pressing on the trunk release button on my smart-key either. I drove the vehicle in that condition for approximately 3 months before I was able to located the source of the problem. After doing ample research on other 2012 Ford Focus drivers that complained of the same symptoms. So I accessed my trunk by folding my back seats down, then pulling the emergency trunk release lever. I then located the faulty wires that were causing all of my symptoms. I had the wires repaired by a professional. That solution worked for about 3 months before reoccurring.

Received a message of power steering assistt failure then wheel would not turn and got very hard I was almost in an accident. It was in motion on the highway

- Columbus, OH, USA

Intermittent, now constant epas (electronic power assisted steering) failure. My 20 year old daughter went to eat with friends after work and when she tried to leave to come home (after midnight), she found that the epas had failed. She did manage to drive the vehicle home since traffic was light, and luckily, the epas did not fail while she was driving or in heavy traffic. Without the epas working, the steering wheel is very hard to turn when the vehicle is in motion and nearly impossible to turn while stationary.

I had just put the car into reverse and the steering assist came up as a malfunction and the car would not move and the steering wheel would not move. Through an internet search I have found this a major safety issue with very high repair costs that needs to be addressed by the Ford Motor Company.

Wires in the trunk completely broken. Symptoms: Trunk won't unlatch, renders the trunk useless. My license plate light flickers. Also, I have to manually turn off my parking lights. They should turn off once locking my doors with my key fob, but they remain on, so I turn them off manually otherwise they'll stay on this draining my battery. Each time I turn on the car, as soon as I shift into drive/reverse, the car begins to beep at me and the dash lights up saying 'luggage compartment lid open' which is very distracting. This happens every time I turn the engine on after shifting into gear. After researching my problem, I've found that many other drivers with similar years of Ford Focus have had the same issue. After I fixed the wires myself, all of these symptoms went away. I'm surprised how many issues those broken wires have caused.

- Stuart, FL, USA

The check engine light comes on and the car will shudder. Have had times where the car had trouble pulling through a not so steep driveway. Have driven it on streets and highways (not very long). Sometimes it is on for a few days then the next day the light will turn off and drive alright. Was told the tcm (total control module needs to be replaced). Have had issues with the clutch assembly which I needed to completely replace as it was falling apart.

We have a 2012 Focus. From day 1, we have had problems with the battery going dead, within just a day. We have had it in numerous dealerships, with no resolve of the problem. After having had enough, we took it to a specialist who hooked it up to a diagnostic machine. The problem was the stereo system draining the battery. But we felt it wasn't our responsibility to have to pay for a new stereo, so we just had it disconnected. Fixed the problem. But the check engine light never goes off. And now it's making a funny noise in the engine and when you come to a stop and accelerate, it sometimes acts like it wants to cut off. I feel like Ford ought to replace the stereo free. We have had it in on other numerous occasions for other problems too. Had to have a new dash twice!

The horn doesn't work all the time along with the doors not always locking or unlocking. The horn concerns me deeply. I don't have a radio haven't had one in a couple of months I filed a complaint a couple months ago. I'm a Ford person and I really wish Ford were take care if these issues. A horn is a pretty important safety issue with the car.

The vehicle just shuts down on the expressway without warning while in traffic. The transmission has been overheating without any unusual acceleration. If driving over 25 mph the transmission overheats and will not accelerate. The vehicle radio comes on without the key in the ignition. The vehicle engine light and transmission light continues to come on without warning.
