2006 Ford Focus ZX5 review from North America
"A very fun to drive and economical car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Gasoline backs up and shoots out of the gas filler while fueling, requiring me to squeeze the handle gently while fueling.
General comments?
My 2006 Focus ZX5 is fun to drive and economical.
However, if you're over 6'2" you'll not have adequate leg room. Also, the air conditioning is terrific, but with the air system turned off, you still have air coming through the air vents... there is no way to completely shut the air vents.
