I have already had to change an alternator 4 times in this car, replace a transmission, fix a water pump and two windows broke due to something with the power window button... the car is a POS. I will never own a ford unless it is a truck...ever again... currently as we speak my car has been in the shop for 2 weeks... I get it tomorrow...I'm trading it in this week for a new car...
This has been the worst almost 2 years with this car!
Just that it had good gas mileage... I bought this car for 4000...bc I had an insurance payoff... but have spent almost 7000 in repairs... not worth it.. hope to break even...*HOPE*
Before you change the car, change the shop. If you burn alternators at that rate there must be a short or faulty wiring. Your shop should have figured that out. Maybe there is corrosion in a ground contact or something simple like that.
If you got a 2003 Focus for only $4,000, doesn't that sound like too good a deal? It was probably wrecked, or recovered from a lagoon after hurricane Katrina, or a "South Chicago Special".
