The quality is really bad. Maybe they've improved in the past few years but one of my friends has a 5 year old Focus that he bought new and is total garbage. The doors don't lock half the time, the transmission craps out once every 6 months, sometimes the engine won't start without wiggling the battery cables, the plastic trim around the windows keeps falling off.
- wolco 9y agoMy focus from 2000 is still in great condition. Good for another 15 years.
- opencl 9y agoI think their quality in the late 90s/early 2000s was really good. I've known a lot of people that drive Fords from that era and a lot of them are still around. Not sure when but it seems to have gone massively downhill at some point at least for the Focus, though maybe they're back to being decent again. Of course this is the problem when looking at the reliability of old cars, it says nothing about what the company is actually currently producing.
