2000 Ford Focus SE review from North America
"Has its ups and downs"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Ignition key sticking, hard to get out, won't turn. After reading of others who have the same problem, and the many complaints on same issue with key on the NHTSA site, I think Ford should offer a free repair regardless of mileage. It's not like they don't know what the problem is.
Seems like it would be in their best interest to keep people happy, so they would buy from them again.
I am trying the WD40. It seems to have freed it up about 75%. Maybe a little more will do the trick.
