Bad master cylinder, bad battery cables, bad fuel pump, rear brakes replaced, front rotors warp, air conditiner replaced, ignition key tumblers stuck, wheel bearings fail, broken clutch spring, EGR sensor failure, mass airflow sensor failure... more, but too many to list.
When the car works, it's pretty nice. But it's such a piece of junk; it only works for a couple of weeks before something else goes wrong. For the money I shelled out on repairs, I could have bought an Acura RSX. No more Fords ever.
I wish a had a dollar for everyone that discovers the hard way not to buy from Ford. At last people are starting to re-discover how bad they really are. Sorry you got taken, and it's a shame that the car is worth about 25 dollars now. Oh well, you live and learn. Get the Honda next time, you won't have any of that trouble.
I just purchased a 2000 Kona two days ago. I'm a little nervous about it, but you don't get many options when trying to find a car under $5,000. If I take good care of it, I am hoping it will take good care of me. Will take it to a Ford dealership tomorrow for a good look through to see what might need to be worked on.
I have a 2000 Ford Focus ZX3. I have replaced the rear brakes, rear wheel bearings, mass air flow sensor, and the key tumblers locked up. And other major stuff.
If this is going to be a recall on this car, who do I contact?
