Default Excuse my language but I got a ?
I'm sorry to say these horrible words, but FORD FOCUS 2002 se 2.0l 16v I believe. Any body know how horrible these are? Common problems? Extra upkeep? Random annoyances? I'm just curious cause my mom wants to buy one ii thought she'd learn from her mercury mistake but I guess not. Thoughts opinions experiences?

I had an svt focus so i had a diff motor but there actually good lil cars, but few issues, if it has a cd changer in it expect it to quit working, some of the switches may randomly quit but other than that i nvr had an issue with mine except my trans exploded but i think that was my fault
