If You want to remove the coolant cap on a Ford Focus the first thing that You should do is make sure that the engine has cooled down. Opening up a hot coolant cap can hurt You because the fluid could be near boiling and splash out of the cap and get onto You and components in the engine compartment. When the system is boiling it is also under greater pressure and the cap sometimes will not open up. When the vehicle has cooled down You can simply press down on the cap and rotate it counter clockwise and it should release from the reservoir with no problem and that can allow You to check the levels.

Open the cap carefully after the car has been used, much easier than when the car was cold.
