The only negative I have to say is that the backseat is small. I have a 2 year old and his car seat takes up the entire backseat basically. I recently just totaled my car by hydroplaning and slamming into a concrete divider on the highway going about 60mph. I walked away completely unharmed minus some bruising across my stomach and shoulder from the seatbelt. I shouldn’t have walked away from that crash like I did. But the car saved me.

Why I love my ford focus.
Ford focus was a pretty good car. It was fun to drive, versatile and available in a wide range of body styles. But as the years went on, newer and more polished rivals relegated it to mid-pack status. Not so with the current-generation focus, which debuted for 2012 and ranks among the best picks in the compact car segment.

I like the way it drives and it is very efficient on gas.
It is gets good gas mileage. It drives nice. I have had to have the clutch replaced 2 times already though. Things seems to go wrong with it quite a bit. Part of me wishes I didn't get this car and got something else. I also already had a recall on the car for the door as well.

Comfortable and reliable transportation.
It is a very reliable car so far but has a problem shifting into second gear. It will shake and/or rattle when going into second gear. It is quite comfortable and performs well. It is a smooth ride and has everything I need and am looking for in a car.

Not the best, not the worst.
Tires do not last very long/multiple issues with tires- tire pressure light continuously stayed on even once we changed the tires. Brakes became faulty for a time period. Heated seats are a nice asset. Gas mileage on vehicle is long lasting. Air and heating does not go out. Experience overall driving a ford focus has been alright.
Melissa P
on June 23, 2021
Decent for the price point.
The transmission has repeated issues, and the vehicle also has several recalls. The recalls range from the transmission, door lock issues, gas tank sensors, and so on. The horn on the car has also gone out repeatedly after being fixed, and it still goes out after working for about three days.

My reliable and safe ford focus.
This was my first car when I turned 16 and has been perfect for me. It is a great size for when you are starting to drive and has been a great size for residing in Los Angeles. The car had a minor engine recall in the past but was fixed in a timely manner and compensated by ford. The only complaints for the car are the small gas tank (I can only get 300 miles per full tank) and the engine struggles when climbing hills. My favorite features of the car are the Bluetooth Sony sound system and the heated seats.
Roxane G
on June 22, 2021
Too many mechanical issues.
There have been multiple mechanical issues and recalls. The same recall has been fixed 3 times and is still having issues. The seats are also very uncomfortable for heavyset people. The leg room is very little in the backseat. There are also not enough cup holders in the vehicle.

Fun to drive, good mpg, comfortable.
My ford focus St is really nice. I like the mpg and the technology features, I wish it had more but I am fine with what it comes with. I haven't got any major problems yet. I feel confident with the car taking it on long trips. Performance is really good it is not a really fast car but it is really fun to drive and pushy with the little 2.0l turbo engine. Suspensions are really nice, you can feel stable on it; not to aggressive but comfortable at the same time. Would love some different exhaust notes just for being the St trim so it can be distinguished from the other trims but it is ok.
Rosalyn W
on June 21, 2021
Small, fun car perfect for young teens or adults.
There was a recall in this model. Other than that, it drives good. It is very small; therefore, I do not recommend this for people with a family. Ages between 15-25 would be a good fit for this vehicle. The Bluetooth is a little dated and does not connect automatically, it has be reconnected each time.
Yvette V
on June 19, 2021
I think my car is good on gas.
It is a good car. I do not see anything wrong with it. I feel comfortable while driving it. I recommend the car to other people. I believe because my car is older that it is better on gas without the extra features. Then again I think you should try to get a newer version but for me this car is for me.
Erik P

2014 ford focus se hatch is a dependable car at a reasonable price.
So far the 2014 ford focus has been reliable to me. I work in transportation part time and it is been doing the job just fine. It is got plenty of room and does not take much money to fill the tank. The things keeping it from a five star review for me is that it unfortunately has a kickback when you accelerate from a stop and it seems to really struggle picking up speed. Other than those two things I say it is a good enough vehicle. The electronics work just fine. Bluetooth is great and I am a fan of how the trunk has a cover so nobody can look into it.
Ashley H
on June 17, 2021
Great small car and gets great gas mileage.
Great small car with great gas mileage. Great first car for anyone who just got their license. It is not a good car for driving in the snow as it will slide. Would be better if the car offered a backup camera and have Sirius XM radio availability. The back seat is not kind of small.
Chris P
on June 15, 2021
Ford focus: a basic sedan.
Transmission seems prone to problems. Vehicle handles well, although the overall durability on the car is somewhat low. Body of the car seems like it does not hold together very well. Had to have all 4 tires replaced due to an alignment issue that had no clear cause other than general wear and tear.

Reason to love my primary vehicle.
Currently I am using ford as my primary vehicle. I have been using this vehicle from 2014 and still I am very much satisfied of its performance. The vehicle mostly I like for its model design and performance. It gives me the feel of luxury car like Audi, BMW. The car dealer is much active and they respond very quickly if I face any problem with my car. I am taking service still from my car dealers for my vehicle.
Renee N
on June 14, 2021
My car, I enjoy my car and all the features it have especially good gas mileage.
It is a white 2014 ford focus sedan. It is a four door car. It is a 4 cylinder which means it is good on gas. I usually get 25 to 30 mile to the gallon. I only have to fill it up one day of week. It would be great for a new driver or someone that travels a lot.
Bailey M
on June 13, 2021
I love how little yet spacious it is. It is great on gas!
As soon as I got my car with only 9 miles on it the transmission kept slipping. I took it to Oxmoor ford and they said they have a recall out on a part for the transmission but it is not the part that is slipping. So I would have to pay for a whole new transmission basically.
Rachael L
on June 12, 2021
It gets really good gas mileage.
I like how smooth it drives, but it rides really low to the ground and it is hard to go anywhere besides main roads. The sounds system had to be replaced like two times. It gets really good gas mileage and I can go on long road trips without worrying. The oil lasts a long time as well.
Brittany H
on June 12, 2021
Do not buy this car, it's a bottomless money pit. You put so much money into it, for it only to fail you every time.
I dislike my car with a passion, we have replaced the clutch in the car 5 times. Now the fuel pump is failing and I've only had the car for a year. Lots of things wrong with it.
michelle C

The car is flex fuel it takes 87 or 85 gasoline.e85 gas is corn oil,usually run $1.50 cheaper then 87
Car has 40,000 miles.im working on replacing the clutch again.it is 15,000 miles ago.car is always n shop.they try to reset the computer.something to do with a bad transmission.Didn't know this issue about car or would not have bought
John M
on June 12, 2021
It has faulty clutch issues.
I only like my car because I put a lot of miles on it going to work. I do not like my car because I have had a lot of expensive maintenance issues. I do not like my car because it is not roomy.
Kathryn L
on June 12, 2021
AT YOUR OWN RISK. Don't buy if you want to like your time driving
The transmission starting acting funny within a couple months of driving off the lot. Everything is poorly designed; from the glovebox, to where the battery is located, to the drivers visor. Terrible car
Valerie V
on June 12, 2021
Low quality car and not dependable.
There are transmission problems with the clutches in it and have had it in the garage 3 times for it. When they go bad your car shakes when pulling out. Also having issues with blower for the air and heat. It will be blowing on high and all of a sudden it will kick down like it is blowing in low setting and then kick back to the high setting for blowing. Car is very uncomfortable as well.
Mike

Avoid this car focus 2014 worst than a bmw
Don't do it.. Run away from this car.. Car runs fine and then the check engine light comes on and it runs like c**p something wrong with the transmission and then the light goes out it runs fine again I should have never let my mom get this car oh my God
Andrew T

This car is comfortable and easy to use.
I really like my car because it is very comfortable and easy to use. I haven't had any problems with my car for a long time. It is very easy to understand the features the car has. The car has a great performance, and it makes long trips very comfortable.
Courtney P

2014 ford focus s do not buy a ford car.
I had to replace the clutch in the transmission three different times since I have owned this car. I have had to get new tires five different times. Brakes have gone bad on it twice. This car is a lemon! Good on gas and there is good trunk space and legroom in the back of the seats. Not a reliable car at all.
cristina B
on June 11, 2021
Good for a first car, I like the seats.
Transmission issues. If I had known of that I would not have bought the car. Overall I haven't had too many problems after having issues resolved and repaired. Because issues are so common with these cars, I have a constant fear of breaking down almost every day.
Veron H
on June 9, 2021
Reliable car, but some issues with size and other features.
Has worked well over many miles, and has been very consistently reliable in getting me where I need to go. Mileage is pretty good too, but I dislike how touchy the breaks are and how small the backseat is. We are also having issues with the tires (we tend to get the low tire pressure warning pretty often).
Sydnie J
on June 8, 2021
Cheap, bad transmission, still runs.
The car was nice and cheap, but has had transmission problems since day 1. We finally got it replaced under warranty last year after it started slipping. It is good on gas, and still running with about 100,000 miles, so cannot complain too much. You cannot access your iPhone music unless you use the voice command, which sometimes does not work.
Cam L
on June 8, 2021
My 2014 ford focus review.
My vehicle has about 80,000 miles on it. I had to get the transmission replaced before I had 75,000 miles on the car. The comfort level and space is really nice. The main issue is that the stereo went out and no longer works. The gas mileage is excellent. It gets about 30 mpg in the city and close to 40 mpg on the interstate.
Enid R
on June 7, 2021
Sunroof is great! And so is the performance!
The car is kind of slow when you get off the line. But overall, I just got this car almost 2 months ago and it has been amazing. The owners prior to me didn't change the brakes or certain other things for the car so I have to do them, but driving wise? I love the car.
Arnau R
on June 7, 2021
Ford focus 2014 owned over 3 years.
My vehicle has currently almost 92 miles and it works fine. I have owned it for 3 years now and I would like to have it for at least 2 more years. The performance is great, reliability and comfort are also positive. Regarding features, it does not have a lot of extra features but it is enough for what I need my car,
Donald C
on June 3, 2021
It has two led displays in it.
It is a fun car. It is great on gas I get almost 30 miles to the gallon. The only problem with the ford focus is the transmission, it has plastic parts in it and has been recalled by ford motor company. If you can get passed putting a new transmission in every so often it is a nice ride.
Kailey W
on June 2, 2021
Transmission issues but otherwise a fine car.
Consistently has transmission and clutch issues. Is fixed by dealership for free but was told that it will always be a reoccurring issue. Is not safe when trying to accelerate on a highway as the accelerator takes a while to get from around 40mph to 70mph.
kayy H
on June 2, 2021
Comfortable, gas saving car.
It is reliable, gets good gas mileage and comfortable. It just has an issue with hesitation when I first start out but it has always had that problem. Has had a lot of recalls but got all that taken care of. Bought the car due to travel to and from work.
brenda D
on May 31, 2021
Why I like my car and how it is perfect for me.
I like my vehicle, it runs smooth most of the time. Sometimes it is slow to start a few mornings. I don't have to put gas in it everyday and I think I get good gas mileage. I like to wash and wax the car to keep it looking nice. I think a well maintained vehicle is worth investing in.
Chandler S
on May 29, 2021
The ability for the back seats to fold down is the best part of my car.
I was looking for a small hatchback to get me through college and that is exactly what I got! I bought that car used with only sixteen thousand miles and so far I have had to change the battery. Other than that getting regular oil changes really helps my car stay running for now.
Brian O
on May 27, 2021
Cheap very reliable and great for a family of 4.
It's a practical car with room for family of four. Comfortable ride with very good gas mileage and above average trunk space. It was very affordable with little to no maintenance required during the first 60k miles I have put on it. I really love the ford brand and the service ford provides me.
Becca S
on May 26, 2021
The heated mobile blueberry.
Everything is nice except the hesitation issue which comes from the transmission. The gas mileage is great. My car has heated seats, mirror defrost and back window defrost, sunroof, steering wheel controls. And pretty reliable getting from 1 place to another. Pretty comfortable for average height. Little small for the giants over 6 ft. Especially in the back seat.
Mary D
on May 23, 2021
Ford focus. A great little car.
The car has good gas mileage and is fun to drive. It has a good stereo and sound system. It had some issues with shifting but ford took care of it and it runs smoother now. The seats are comfortable especially on a long drive. It has plenty of room for being a small car.
Jennifer H
on May 20, 2021
My vehicle is very nice conservative car that rumbles once in awhile.
The transmission is known to have a rumbling problem, the doors are really heavy and people struggle to open them. The car is sturdy has made it over curbs and through backing up into things. Very comfortable, but a little small. The passenger window button has stopped working and it is just that button. Great on mileage. Convenient phone services included.
Mark F
on May 20, 2021
Outside of the electronic clutch.
My model has had issues with the computer shifting clutch, which has been a real pain. Twice is has been replaced, though is seem fix now and good on ford to final extend more long term coverage (100k) of the part goes out again. Otherwise, I have been very happy with the car.
Laura B
on May 17, 2021
Small but fast. Gets the job done.
Has no Bluetooth system. Stereo is very basic and not up to date. It has both power and manual windows, which is a pain. Is a good car that gets good gas mileage. Not a lot of space but for a single girl it gets the job done. Would prefer a car more around the size of a fusion, but this was in My price range.
Amy G
on May 16, 2021
I love the features provided in front of the dashboard.
It does not have crazy get up and go, however it still has enough power in it to accelerate fairly quickly. It provides information in front of the steering wheel, which is extremely convenient. The one thing I dislike is that the button to lock and unlock the doors is on the console with the radio controls, this is not as convenient as a regular car where all you have to do is push the button on the door; it's something that takes some time getting use too.
Ryan T
on May 16, 2021
Details about the 2014 ford focus.
The overall veh is ok. The major issues I have are with the transmission. I have had to take my veh onto ford multiple times for the issues with the transmissions. I would not recommend this veh to my friends if they are able to get something else. I have not had any issues with the engine or the steering. The display screens are nice but wish they had more features to them as well. Veh will tell you when there is a issue with the veh most of the time.
Dylan E
on May 15, 2021
Fuel efficient and reliable.
The car has minimal problems aside from a recall that occurred a year or two ago. The car performs well for what it is. The gas mileage is very good and the car is very reliable. The backseat is a bit small considering it is a subcompact car but other than that it is comfortable. The Bluetooth can be difficult at times.
Kaylea P
on May 14, 2021
Red ford focus! Four door sedan. Great car mileage and great on gas.
The ford focus is a great car runs very smooth & very good gas. I haven't had any problems with it so far. I have been with ford for years now. It has a touch screen radio. Back up noises for you so you can hear when your getting close to something. Blind spot mirrors. & leather seats!
Melissa S
on May 12, 2021
The car tracks how many miles you have left until you need to get gas!
The vehicle has no problems. It is an extremely reliable car. The seats are very comfortable and of course these has the heated seats which is amazing in the winter time. Something else I really like about the car is there are lights inside that turn on when it gets dark out, one in the cup holder, the door handle, and by your feet.
Alejandro L
on May 11, 2021
My red beauty is the fastest around.
My car has amazing gas mileage and can go great distances without any problems the whole make of the car just sound great when you drive down the road. If your looking to travel or for a car for everyday use then this car would be perfect to drive around.
Rebecca K
on May 10, 2021
Great mpg, but mechanically wouldn't recommend.
The car is small and compact. For that reason it gets amazing gas mileage. This is the 1 thing I love about the car. But the car itself has some mechanical issues. It has had several recalls. The car will shake up acceleration, usually when shifting from 1-2 gear or 2-3 gear. Because it is so compact, we struggle to fit even 1 car seat in the vehicle, and anyone over 5’11’ really is not comfortable in the vehicle.
Shonda S
on May 7, 2021
2014 focus: decent car for the price.
I have not had any major issues with this vehicle. The transmission stutters when starting from a stop after driving for a half hour or so, but has not been a real problem. The sync feature is nice. There have been several recalls but they are fixed for free.
Aaryn A
on May 3, 2021
Pretty satisfied ford owner.
Small interior with little leg room, trouble with accelerating because it is lurches, great gas mileage, easy to drive, Bluetooth syncing ability, safety features, engine prompts are nice to know when repairs and maintenance is needed, and the car is affordable.
Kayla M
on May 3, 2021
Great car when not inherited.
Our car has had a lot of issues since we inherited it from my mother in law. That being said we have had to replace the hood, the engine in its entirety. I could be biased when it comes to this car but I am ready for something new and in much better shape.
Joelyn M
on April 30, 2021
It has some kinks but it isn't a bad car.
My car has had 5 recalls and has always seemed to have problems with the transmission after getting it fixed. The gas tank is not accurate at all. It can go from 60 miles left till empty to out of glass. Other than those problems it is a nice car. Very comfortable and good for long car rides. Has a pretty big truck for bag.
Sam S
on April 28, 2021
It got me to where I was going when it ran right.
It has transmission problems because it is on recall. They fixed it and a year and a half later it had the same problems. All focuses from 2010 to 2020 have this problem. Not a car that I would trust. It is all has no power whatsoever. It did happen to have great gas mileage though. I will never have another ford car after this though.
Em K
on April 28, 2021
Ford focus transmission problems.
The ford focus has multiple transmission issues. It causes the car to shake when going from a stop to accelerating. Has Bluetooth in the car which is great for answering calls on the go or listening to music from your phone without having to worry about a cord.
Deja D
on April 27, 2021
It has 911 assist, and sync connects your phone when you get in your car.
My car is very reliable. Great on gas. Has a small interior, so if you do not like that, you will not like this car. I have minimum problems with my car. I had it for two years before having a minor issue with it. I have driven my car out of state about an 860 mile distance several times.
Grace S
on April 25, 2021
Good car for students or people looking for a reliable car.
This car is rather reliable. Mechanical problems can be fixed quickly at a shop. Handles well on highways and great for city driving. Great mpg and cheap to fill up. Reasonably comfortable. Struggles a bit up hills, but handles them okay. Features are nice and add to the appeal of the car. Has enough room to transport groceries and small items.
Theresa E
on April 24, 2021
My ford is the best car ever!
I have had to have the automatic clutch replaced twice! And the a/c unit went out after three years! It fortunately was all covered! Ford took care of the repairs! Otherwise happy with the car in general! Have had fords for years! And will continue to purchase fords!
Sydney F
on April 22, 2021
An all around reliable car.
My ford focus has been extremely reliable with very few issues. I have never had to do more than normal maintenance for it and it is a great comfortable ride. Though I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who is super tall as it is compact. Gets great gas mileage too.
bonnie K
on April 19, 2021
Major transmission problems in all these type cars.
There is a major prob with this model of car and its to do with the transmission,all of these models have had probs with this, they have flashed my transmission once and it's done ok ever since however I do not drive my car very much and if I did I would prob have the same prob again and many other people have. Other then that prob I love my car but sad to say that is a very major prob indeed.
Jerry L
on April 18, 2021
Very dependable and reliable and fun car to drive.
TCM and clutch issues transmission is a ongoing problem clutch has. Even replaced twelve time since 2017 I love it I wish I would have got a manual transmission. I do love the drive ability of my car and the fuel mileage. The Bluetooth system is awe full needs replaced with a great brand of receiver.
Judy H
on April 16, 2021
Love the in sync. And the dashboard.
Car has trouble with transmission and has several recalls. Ford has always been good at fixing them. I. Have always been happy with ford products. The gas. Mileage is about 34 mi to gallon. It holds the road. Very good and is very comfortable. This is my third ford focus very happy.
Christine S
on April 14, 2021
Problem with starting car.
Decent enough car. But having issues getting an inspection sticker due to the car not starting properly. Brought it to a shop to get it fixed yet the problem continues. Had to replace the tires twice within a few months. Could be wear and tear on the car but it does not have that many miles on it or that old as it is only 2014.
Leah V
on April 14, 2021
The ford focus actually has a different transmission making it incredibly unique.
I haven't really had any issues with my ford focus since buying it. I love how comfortable the inside is and how it utilizes all the space in the vehicle. I also love how it performs and it never fails to impress me on the road. I think anybody would be lucky to get a ford focus.
Bre H
on April 14, 2021
Overall great car and I liked it so much I got a second one.
Love the heated seats and the back up sensors. Transmission is strange to get used to driving, it is a shiftable automatic to going between gears is a little jerky at times. The Bluetooth also does not show me the song playing and instead just says Bluetooth media is playing.
Hannah Z
on April 10, 2021
2014 ford focus: great on gas.
There was a recall on it when I first got it which affected the transmission and made my car jerk while accelerating. But other than that this car is very reliable and good on gas. On average I pay $20 to fill up the tank. Gets me from point a to point b and is compact enough to fit into tight spaces.
Carlos C
on April 10, 2021
Ford focus and its reliability.
The car is really nice. Doesn't waste a lot of gas and fills up with 20 dollars every 10 days. The car has really no problems runs great and hasn't failed me yet. The only thing that it's not that reliable in the snow. Because it's a small car. I got 2 kids and the car seats take up most of the space in the back not really able to have an extra passengers.
Tonika D
on April 10, 2021
Driving safely is the key.
My vehicle is very small so it is very easy to find parks. It has my key safety. That means I can set my speed limit and radio volume, so if I let my teenage cousin drive the my key helps her stay focus. The radio will also turn off and will not turn back on until all seat belts are on. Brakes are inexpensive but tends to make squeaking noise even when the brakes are in old. Rides very smooth and car comes with Bluetooth and Sirius. It has the double side mirrors which helps with seeing your blind spots better as well. Let’s you know when oil or brakes need to be changed and also lets you know when tire pressure is low. Let’s you know when you should go get gas.
Julian C
on April 8, 2021
I like the color, it is a very beautiful color.
The ford focus se has really good miles per gallon. It is compact and fits in most parking spots. It has decent horsepower. Picks up to 60 in about 8 seconds. Seats are very comfortable. Plenty of cargo space and back seats are decent sized. It's got four tires. Windows and doors.
Mike S
on April 8, 2021
Great! Dependable, sporty, and comfortable.
Comfortable ride. Great gas mileage. Plenty of space in front and back. Plus the hatchback is a lifesaver. This car has never given me any major problems. Long trips are easy and I never feel like I have been stuck in one spot for too long! Overall a great car for a college student or a small family.
Sunsheree G
on April 8, 2021
My vehicle is very reliable.
The ford focus 2014 has a recall on the transmission, but if you take care of the car everything should be fine. For example if you stay on the oil change that helps a lot. I get the oil change every three thousand miles. I have traveled from Pennsylvania to Kansas it is about an 20 hour drive and the car is still working great!
Carol H
on April 6, 2021
A fun and easy to drive car.
My car drives very well and is generally comfortable to ride in. The radio sound is great and it is easy to operate. Shifting gears and putting on the brakes works well and makes driving easier. Because the car is not huge, I feel more comfortable when I am in an area with lots of cars around me. It is easy to see around me and change lanes when needed. Overall, I think my car is good and is easy to drive.
Rosa J
on April 4, 2021
Overall a great vehicle to drive to work or long drives, great gas mileage.
Great with gas mileage. I love the size of the vehicle, 5 person capacity and the vehicle can really fit anywhere I go for parking. Had a few problems with transmission and the gas clutch at 95,000 miles. The features are great, it actually still has a CD player. Drives very smooth and brakes are great.
Jen G
on April 4, 2021
Transmission issues but still a good purchase.
There are constant transmissions and clutch issues. Aside from that I love the gas mileage and the design. The ability to drop the back seats to expand the trunk has been incredibly helpful in moving and hauling things. Wish I knew about the transmission issues before, but it is been a good and reliable car despite the aforementioned issues.
Kimber Q
on April 4, 2021
I like the sync and you can connect it so you can hear over the speakers.
I have owned my 2014 ford focus since 2016. It has had trouble with the alignment and transmission. I have had so many recalls on this vehicle, I cant keep track anymore. I love the miles to the gallon you get and it's a smooth drive for sure. I like the sync system the car comes with and I like that you can connect your phone to your car. I have honestly had more issues with my 2014 ford focus than I have my older 2005 ford focus. There's also less legroom and trunk space in my 2014 than my 2005.
A P
on April 4, 2021
Smooth riding car! Comfortable to ride.
I really enjoy my car. Performance wise it gets me where I need to go and I didn't have any problems. I've had a few recalls but I've gotten them taken care of. My car is VERY reliable. The only thing I don't like about the car is it doesn't have backseat air vents so that's frustrating with my child sitting RF.
Thomas I
on April 3, 2021
It gets good gas mileage.
The focus has been a good car for me. It gets good gas mileage. It has had very few repairs. I have found it to be a reliable car.

Great on gas and reliable.
Vehicle is great on gas. Bluetooth capability for both calls and music. Comfortable seating and trunk space. Seat adjustability can be better. Vehicle is very reliable drives smooth after take off. While accelerating vehicle stalls a bit but picks up quick.

Getting a new car soon. I cannot wait.
I like my car but I do not mind upgrading and going electric and saving money on gas. What I do like about my car is the interior and how fast it goes. I have only had it for a few months but I am looking for something new and different. By new year I'll be driving in something new.

I feel that the most important thing about my car is that it is a wry safe car for a family.
It is a great family car and rarely has any problems. It is the perfect size for our family needs. The only dislike I have with the car is the transmitting recall that we had to get fixed several times.

The car is a good size car and allow for enough room for 5 passengers.
I have had many problems with my car and have only had it for 2 years. I have gotten the transmission replaced twice because there was a recall on the transmission. I have also had the wheel bearings fixed three times in the past year. There is also a stutter when I take off from a complete stop, this has been an issue the whole time I have owned the car. I would not recommend this car to someone looking for a new car. I would not recommend a ford at all.

It is good on gas and dependable and is fun to drive.
I like the special features such as the lighting and the moon roof. The hands free phone feature and power seats. I do not like transmission in this model year of the focus

Overall a great car on gas, and makes me feel safe while driving.
There has been problems and recalls on this car. Firstly, I had to have a recall done over something involving the engine light to pop up. Secondly, my radio has been faulty causing loud screeching sounds when playing the radio and not allowing me to connect a Bluetooth device correctly through the speakers.

Great car, down to every physical feature.
The car is great overall. The only issue we had was with the Bluetooth connection but we were able to solve it quick. The car functions well and alerts you when anything seems to be wrong. It is great on gas, so we do not have to waste money on gas often.

It gets good gas mileage. It handles awesome. It has a lot of extras.
It gets good gas mileage. It's a little small, not a lot of room inside. Overall I like it though.

My 2014 ford focus is a small. Compac smoke gray four door.
It's a great small car with Bluetooth accessibility and phone connection and more great gas saver and low maintenance. My car was used and had 92k miles on it. I am very happy with the price as well. 7,300 dollars very easy to keep clean it is also four doors great cruise control a most modern features except rear view dash camera.

Good ride overall, some issues present.
The vehicle is comfortable and has a decent amount of space for the size. The Bluetooth system is a nice addition, although mine stopped working about 6 months ago. I have tried the 'free' fixes, but nothing has worked and I do not have the money currently to pay for it to be fixed. The car drives nice, besides 'shaking' when going from stop to start at a red light or stop sign. The car has nice features, such as heated seats and USB charging port.

The ford focus challenges in 2014.
The focus has had several recalls for 2014 model. A few things have broken down that needed repaired, and it is only at 87,000 miles. It is a small car that gets around really easy and well. The hatchback is a great feature to carry other items, compared to a standard sedan.

It is very good on gas and fun to drive. The color is so pretty
Had a ford explorer and it was nice , but used a lot of gas, have a focus now and like the it is fuel efficient, many years ago had a chrysler which used a lot of oil. Don't need a big cr anymore

2014 ford focus glitches!
The transmission is not working correctly. When I accelerate the car has a tough time speeding up. The radio glitches occasionally especially during the cold. The extra storage is nice with the smaller vehicle however you cannot fit too many people in the car especially the back seating due to the size.

Vehicle review ‘14 ford focus.
Overall, the car is a great car. However, I did have a couple issues with the transmission 2 months after buying the car. My radio stopped working but I was able to get it fixed. It is definitely a car that I would purchase for one of my children’s first vehicles.

My daily joy... My Ford Focus!
I love my 2014 Ford Focus! I bought it used and came from a SUV to this and was a little afraid it would be too small for large grocery runs but I've yet to be dissatisfied! I've been able to fit $423.17 of groceries, all bags, in the back plus 4 cases of water, a new laundry basket, microwave in its new box, and a stick vacuum in it all in one trip with no problem and there was still PLENTY of space for a large suitcase and then some! Yes, I forgot I had this car when I was shopping! Lol but after that day I've never worried again about how much I could get in it! Anyway, besides space, this car is comfortable and has everything you could ask for in a vehicle and all at your fingertips. I especially like the fact that the lock/unlock button for the doors is on the front dash panel so you or the passenger can reach it. It's all upfront! Heating/cooling is at your fingertips or on screen. There are many different positions for the driver's seat: up, down, forward, back. If you can't see out of this car and be comfortable you'll never find a car! The gas mileage is GREAT! I only fill up once a week and I drive everywhere and sit in traffic 30+ mins both ways to work. I'm in love with the fact that it doesn't have a gas cap! It's amazing that the door to it seals it up and is so much faster at gas stations! Love it! This vehicle handles like I dream too! I just got rid of my Cadillac SRX and you couldn't trade me another car for my Ford Focus! I'm in love! Buy yourself one and you'll experience my daily joy!

Cheap car with multiple problems, but still gets me where I need to be.
I have had clutch problems, paint chipping and not causing my car to rust, and it does not drive smooth at all. The car does not handle well in the winter.. It does get good gas mileage which is a plus, but still not my favorite car to have. It was also a cheap car so to be expected to not be the best car but still expected a little more out of it.

None. Its was good to have something that works good for me the time being.
I had problem with my horn, engine. Its a used car so I had problems from the last owner. Paid a lot with a new alternator and other things came up. Had to service for the car was jerking when step on gas and for couple months it started up again now gotta take it in for another service.

Ford focus hatchback: why we love it, the one issue we have.
We love the vehicle. Great gas mileage and still runs amazingly. Does have some issues with the radio but those seem to be from previous owners. So we do not blame that on ford. We love the room it has even though it is a smaller car. When we do need a new car, we will probably just get a newer model.

Bad deal- beware of buying a ford focus hatchback.
Bad performance in general, bad engine wiring issues, bad wiring, bad transmission, bad clutch, paint is coming off, paint peels easily, bad computer software, bad car locking system. It has had so many issues and I will never buy another ford again.

2014 ford focus quick review.
This car is a very reliable car and cheap to maintain. There have been a few recalls on the car which are fully covered by ford when brought into a certified dealer. A con to owning the s or at least mine is that even though it is a 2014 it has actual roll down windows in the back. You’d think that by this day and age we live in that those dinosaurs are extinct.

Automatic transmission feels like it is a standard.
The 2014 model has a dual clutch automatic transmission which causes it to stutter and feel like it is stalling, even though it is an automatic. The vehicle itself is comfortable and reliable, but the transmission issues make it feel as though it is not reliable.

Comfortable car for single person.
Car is comfortable to drive but is not comfortable for anyone larger than a small child in the back seat. Back seats fold down to provide a decent amount of space for transporting items. Known issue with transmission that is under extended warranty. Electric steering failed, not under warranty and was costly to replace.
