2001 Ford Focus ZX3 S2 review from North America
"Great car, would recommend the Focus models to anyone, provided 2003 model or later (due to recalls)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had a leaky gas cap and defective DPFE sensor (which gave an EGR code for the check engine light), both replaced under warranty.
Low mileage car, driven daily with no problems over the past few years...
General comments?
Bought the car because it was so good-looking for the time. Have updated the look over time with body-colored moldings and European grilles, window tint and lowering springs, and the car still looks great, even for a 7 year old model!!!
I love the manual crank moonroof!!!
