2007 Ford Focus SES review from North America
"Not nearly as good as I thought it would be"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It was a new rental.
General comments?
My friend rented this car for a trip we took.
The Focus wasn't bad looking.
The ride was jittery and had a lot of road noise.
It had plenty of room for a small car.
The engine struggled and the auto transmission shifted harshly.
Interior fit and finish was not good.
The cup holders were a joke. The front passengers had 4 of them (2 each) and they were all placed in awkward positions. It was impossible to find them without looking.
The door locks locked with a clunk.
The turn signal noise made us both laugh every time we had to use them. It sounded like we were pressing a bottle cap.
The seats were OK.
