2001 Ford Focus SE review from North America
"A good car for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problem I've had with this car is that it has a sporatic hick-up. every now and then while driving, the engine will momentarily quit, the gages will flash and the engine will rev. but then as quickly as it happens it will go away. sometimes not happening again for days or weeks. does anyone out there have the same problem? and if so... what can I do. the used car dealer has done much testing, but with no success.
General comments?
Over all it is a great car, good on gas, and fun to drive.
