2001 Ford Focus SE review from North America
"100,000 miles and still running strong!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Stock "performence" tires were way to loud for our taste, we changes them out and have had no problems since.
General comments?
Just turned 100,000 miles with absolutely NO major problems what so ever. I have changed oil every 3000 miles religiously and that's it.
My wife's car, she loves it...it's a bit small for me at 6'1" but I manage. Have taken this car on many cross country trips with no problems.
I'd buy another one in a heart beat without hesitation.
I'll also tell to that my father in law has a 2000 focus as well, no reported problems, basic maintenance and he is running over 150,000 miles right now.
