Slow acceleration and small vehicle but everything else is stellar.
The only problem I have is that the acceleration from a full stop is so slow. The gas mileage is amazing. I get about 30 miles to the gallon. It is not pricey. I got mine in 2017 fresh off the lot with 5 miles for I believe $13k because I had a check from my previous car. I love the color. The radio is amazing. The car is a bit smaller so if you are taller I wouldn't recommend.

Has It's hiccups, but gas mileage is wonderful.
Air conditioning problems, the head and feet fan do not work at the same time, it is either one or the other. Sometimes it has trouble turning on. Rattling sound from behind the driver's seatbelt. Trouble accelerating after a stop, or feeling the whole vehicle vibrate while changing speeds. When it does not have these mechanical problems it does run very smooth. It does great on gas and that is the main reason I purchased this vehicle.

Focus review - standard transmission.
I like my car; would have preferred a different color, but the features suit my needs. It gets very good gas mileage, despite the fact that I drive mostly local. The only issue I have had is that the oil change indicator did not function the first time I needed to change my oil.
Annah R

Compact! This vehicle is small, but somehow still has so much interior room.
Sometimes the engine will “chug” when I accelerate too quickly after slowing down. Usually right around the time for an oil change- coincidence or not l, I have never had an issue with this vehicle. Some snowy days can be tricky for traction but I have also never needed to be towed or pulled out of a ditch. Space is great! Fitting a rear facing car seat in the back seat is tight but it fits. The truck space is also good size.

My ford focus is the perfect car for me.
I love that my car is really reliable, has not had any issues since I have bought it and it is really easy to drive. Plus, the leather seats keep it smelling like a new car every time I get in it. It is a black car so one annoyance is that you can always see the dirt but that is really the only issue. It makes me feel at home.
Kayla W
on June 17, 2021
It's a nice ride, a few problems.
The only issue is car seats don't work properly in this vehicle. Other than that the dust catcher falls off easily. It's a smooth ride, I wish it had seat warmers. It's got a neat little card holder. This vehicle is not meant for dirt road areas. Other than the issues listed, it's a really nice ride. (I upgraded from a falling apart mini cooper.).

The truck will close on its own, just wave your foot under the back bumper!
The car has been great! Everything still runs great, it is a daily driver car and it holds everything you need it to with plenty of room. Easy to maintenance as well. The hatchback is convenient, the drink holders are big, the led lighting in the car is so cool. I would absolutely recommend this car.

Small compact bug with no get up and go.
There has been an oil leak since day one. There is no room. The interior is cheaply made. The door jams are tearing apart. It does not drive well in rain or wind. The alignment is easily knocked out. The seats are not holding up. The tire sensor light stays on.
Josh H
on June 9, 2021
The best detail is the dash interface. Saved my butt many times.
The car always turns over when you put the key in. A/c and heat work great. All I have had to do is regular upkeep like oil changes and tires here and there. The lighting for the dash and center console are very well done. The blue accent looks great. Interface shows you everything from mpg to mph, indicates tire pressure, little things like brake lights. Highly recommend.

4 door, tan leather seats, heated seats and steering wheel, automatic sunroof.
My vehicle came with a sunroof and heated seats. It also has a heated steering wheel which I love. It has touchy pedals but I have gotten used to that. My seats are tan leather and I love it. Good space and I enjoy the apple carplay and touch screen display it has.

The pros and cons of a 2017 ford focus.
The 2017 ford focus has a lot of great features including: a big trunk, spacious backseat, and sound system that tells what song you are listening to. The drawbacks are the car roof is low in comparison to the driver's seat. This means when you wear a ponytail or high bun (which I often do) you will hit the top of your ponytail. I have hit my head while going over a speed bump. Other than this the car is a great basic car, and great on gas.
Sid U
on May 28, 2021
What’s it is like to drive the smooth ford focus.
I really love how smooth and quiet the ford focus drives. I can barely tell it is pushing the speed limit and seems as it is barley facing the engine. It also was a cheap and affordable car if u are not looking to pay ton of money for a newer vehicle. Finally I love the small tight fit feeling I have when maneuvering tight turns and parks.
Micheala A
on May 27, 2021
Racing into the future with the 2017 ford focus.
I love my ford focus, it handles good on the road, it is safe, cheap on gas, has Bluetooth, and goes very fast. I do encounter problems with it though like the Bluetooth glitches a lot and has connection issues, the transmission has a delay when I kick it in gear to go fast, and if you are taking a long trip, you will have to keep stopping for gas. If you have kids, I do not recommended this car because it is pretty tiny.
Anessa H
on May 26, 2021
Good car, hardly any downfalls.
Backup cam isn't too large and the stock radio is nice. I do wish the seats were darker so they don't stain as easily. There are plentiful cup holders, and good air con. The lights are bright, at night it make it easy to see any possible hazards in the road. The only downfall I see if that there is no way to turn off the headlights, so at a firework show sitting in the car we had to turn off the car and sit in the heat.
Chris C
on May 17, 2021
My ford focus is black with red stripes on it that is the colors that I like.
My car is really fast and I got it with red strips that didn't come with the car. It is a black ford focus that I got help with. I love my car it is great. I travel back and forth in it. I go different places in it because I work. Ford focus is a really great car to have.

It is a bright red 2017 ford focus.
My vehicle is a 2017 ford focus. I have had it for less than 2 years and it is been in the shop 3 times. I have replaced the transmission in it twice. New breaks. My Bluetooth has went out. And when I bought the vehicle it was practically brand new. It is been a terrible vehicle.
Audrey L
on May 10, 2021
It has wheels and moves. Slowly. But move all the same.
My vehicle does not take pot holes or bumps in the road well. It is blue which make it easy to find in a parking lot. My favorite thing about my car is it gets me where I need to go. Often times, driving back and forth between school and home, I enjoy listening to music using the speakers. They provide good quality sound.
Jennifer D
on May 10, 2021
The increase in technology in cars is the best feature I love in my car.
My car has very comfortable seats. The ford focus drives smooth. I like the extra features. However, the battery tends to go bad quickly. Since I bought the car early this year has shown good performance and reliability. Two of my favorite features is the backup camera and the ability to sync to my phone.
Dylan S
on May 9, 2021
Great vehicle for a young adult that is on-the-go.
The 2017 ford focus sel is a great car for the young adult that is always on the go. It is incredibly fuel efficient and will cut your fuel expenses significantly every month. The sel trim comes with an amplified sound system that takes care of the job if you do not wish to do your own aftermarket shopping. The sunroof is a lot of fun and one of my favorite features.
Pya N
on May 9, 2021
It can reach up to 60 mph in 5 seconds.
The gas runs out quite quickly, but the car runs smoothly especially over messed up streets. Seats and comfortable and overall interior is nice looking. The wheel is getting looser, but breaks are still intact. Speakers are great. Oil changes get pricey at times. Air capacity in tires remained consistent since I first got the car.
Jo S
on May 7, 2021
Ford focus is a good vehicle for city living.
Good gas mileage. Transmission is a little janky. Size is on the smaller side but the trunk has lots of room. Steering is great because of its size, handles great too. Compact size helps living in a big city. Haven't had any major mechanical issues in almost 2 years of having it.
Erin M
on May 6, 2021
My vehicle has good mileage and it is a good size. Not too big but still roomy.
My vehicle is comfortable to drive and has features like Bluetooth that are important to me. It has great gas mileage and is overall a great, reliable car. It has had issues with the automatic clutch which has been a problem in previous ford's I have had.
Megan R

A sturdy yet occasionally finicky car.
Had a lot problems with the vehicle-the axis is misaligned, currently have a slow oil leak, it is a good car though-I drive it back and forth between New Jersey and Pennsylvania; leased it at first and own it now; seats are comfortable and my dog seatbelt fits in it nicely.
Cynthia J

Small machine to love the color is white and I look good in white.
This vehicle is small enough for me and sometimes it runs heard. I can be running at a high speed and the car will be hard to slow down. I bought this car in 2017 and you can always have a good on gas and you do not have to spend a lot of money for gas. I have not had any problems now.
Michelle H
on April 26, 2021
A bad taste in your mouth: ford focus and the transmission!
The 2017 ford focus has ongoing transmission issues. I have had the tranny repaired 3 times already. It will begin with shuddering when you take off from a stop. As the war heats up the shuddering will worsen. Eventually you won't be able to get it in gear at all. The 2012-2016 had a class action lawsuit against ford for the transmission.. Seems like ford didn't do much to better the 2017.
Dane P
on April 24, 2021
Bought the focus St brand new then modified with a less restrictive exhaust.
Air vents do not point down far enough. Radio does not go loud enough. Depreciates too quickly. Lug pattern is the worst pattern to have. Cabin seems loud, should have more sound deadening. Had too many recalls for simple things. Torque steer in okay but could be improved upon.
Shannon B
on April 23, 2021
Ford is a great car choice.
It has great gas mileage and drives so smoothly! I do not like the fact that it has started to shake in the last year when I get to a certain mph, we took it in and they said it is normal. The car takes e85 which is also awesome since it is the cheapest.
Michele B
on April 22, 2021
Wonderful commuter car, great gas mileage.
The car is a wonderful commuter car. Great gas mileage, drives nicely. The truck is actually pretty good size, am able to haul a large quantity when seats are down. Seats are easy to clean, comfortable for five passengers. Automatic transmission, love the reverse camera.
Ian H
on April 16, 2021
Ride suspension, exhaust damping is easily adjusted with the click of a button.
Comfort of the 2017 focus rs is sub par of that with the cheaper trims, including the oversized plastic dashboards with all plastic door trim. The seats are comfortable but not for larger people. The recaros do their job and hugging your body, but could be slightly wider.
Regis K

Like father, like son: a ford for generations.
I have had my 2017 ford focus se for a little over a year now. Right out of the lot, I loved the look of the dash and central media hub. Everything was clear and easy to learn after just a few days of driving. Fuel efficiency is a priority for me, and over the last year I am confident the focus’s 37 mpg has saved me some money. One of my favorite features is the sound system and the easy-to-use Bluetooth selection within the media hub. I can seamlessly skip through my music and podcasts while on longer road trips or daily commutes to work. After a year, I have put a little over 10,000 miles on it and have kept it clean and running smooth as butter. My father has owned an older model focus for 10 years now, and says how much he loves my 2017 model almost every time we're in the car. The look of my car is clean and simple. It is an automatic, and shifts through my gears as it accelerates with no hesitation. I am not a fast driver, but I have the power I need of an emergency arose.
Allissa C

I enjoy my backup camera.
I have enjoyed having this car for a few months now. It is a very reliable car with great gas mileage. I have friends that have had a ford focus last them for many years. It is the perfect size for me; not too small, but still easy to whip around. I would purchase it again as of now.
Hayden F
on April 11, 2021
Pure beauty of a car. Love this thing.
I love it never has failed me. A little tough to drive in the snow as it is only a front wheel drive car. It is very reliable has 50k miles on it and not a single thing wrong with it yet. I would recommend this car for anyone who is looking for a reliable car that gets good gas mileage and looks good in the process.

Car satisfaction and review for others to see.
It is ok, has good gas mileage but I am more of a truck, SUV guy good til I can get on, very comfortable, reliable in every way. Comfortable for the size I wasn't expecting that. Features are basic but good I would recommend to friends and family and would definitely buy again.

A review of a car by someone who knows little about cars.
I have enjoyed this vehicle. I have had to fix a couple recalls. The recalls were not super significant. I plan to have this car for a long time. I do not have any complaints about this car. I enjoy that it is four door, there is plenty of room in the trunk. I like the back up camera, I like the radio and the speakers.

2017 ford focus- super safe car.
I personally love my car- it is extremely safe and reliable and a major step up from the older focus models. I get great gas mileage as of now- only $20-$25 to fill up my car. I like that it has Bluetooth connections, and safety notifications. I have the hatchback model and the trunk has tons of space. I am super glad I bought this car!
David C

Great on gas with room for the whole family
My focus gets great gas mileage!!with its fuel saving transmission it automatically puts your car in the proper gear to use the most sufficient amount of fuel. It has plenty of room to seat 5 comfortably..large trunk space for groceries or luggage. And very affordable it's a GREAT car the price anybody looking for a new car I would recommend them to at least consider a Ford Focus
Tanya S

My ford focus and the reason I like it.
I enjoy driving my 2017 ford focus sedan. I have a white exterior and all black interior and love the way it looks. I find it easy to drive and user friendly for all its features and enjoy the backup camera and Bluetooth features the most. I like that the oil used is synthetic so there is longer in between oil changes, but wish it didn't cost more.
Brittany Z
on March 29, 2021
It is awesome. I love it.
It is a good dependable car. It runs fairly good and has pretty good gas mileage also. It is also a pretty fast car as well and it goes pretty fast when you try to race it. I also really love the built in touch screen radio and heated seats. It is awesome.
Jean J
on March 29, 2021
The vehicle is very comfortable.
So far I have had no problems with changing the oil in my vehicle. It seems to me that a constant revision should be made to avoid. The vehicle seems very comfortable to me. I would really recommend the make and model. In general the vehicle is very good.

The ford focus hatchback is a great vehicle to own.
This is a great car for someone like me who drives a lot and likes a reliable car. It has great gas mileage, is good in the winter, and I love the heated seat and steering wheel features. Also, the hatchback feature is very nice and convenient for traveling and grocery shopping. It can comfortably seat four to five people.
Stephanie S
on March 28, 2021
It is a good value for the money.
I like the size of the vehicle and the gas mileage. I am very satisfied with the amount of get up and go it has for a smaller engine. I am not as satisfied with how small the opening is of the trunk. It is hard to fit a box in the trunk.

I have not had any problems with my car at all. I have had it for 4 years now and it still runs like it is brand new. Great gas mileage and the perfect car to have to get around town easily!! I love it and if I was ever on the market for a new car I would definitely consider another one of these!
Elyse J

A lot of recalls but it gets great gas mileage.
There have been several recalls and that is an inconvenience. I do not like how the backseat windows are manual and the front are automatic. There have been multiple recalls for the transmission. I have safety concerns. It is great on gas though. I wish it wasn't so basic.
Court C

Lord of room & super reliable.
My car has been very reliable, I travel a lot and have had no problems. It is a large car with lots of room, way roomier than any other car I have ever driven. It is comfortable and the seats have several adjustment settings to increase comfort. It has a back up camera which is a necessity now a days.
Joshua G

2017 focus St basic overview.
Good vehicles with comfy seats that fit small and larger people. Abs kicks on under hard braking which is annoying. Car drives great in traffic and features like Bluetooth make communication easy. Rear camera quality is amazing and the transmission shifts are precise.
Justin J

My ford focus is the best car every I am so in love.
I do not have any car problems it is comfortable and my style. Car note is a little expensive but I still love it so much. It is better than any car I have had so far. It drives really nice and look beautiful at night time. I use it as my everyday car, I drive it everywhere and it managers to stay clean, it is read. Would look great with tints.
Debbie B

Love my Ford Focus Very nice car
Had to go in for recall fixes. Other than that works great. Perfect car. I have the hatchback version, and it allows me to do a lot of hauling of stuff to the local dump, grocery shopping. It has four doors and is comfortable one for adults are in the car for a ride
Cara C

Great car if you are always on the move!
I have had the car since it has had 7 miles on it, and it now has 95k. The car gets fantastic gas mileage and I am able to fit an ample amount of items in it while traveling. I have had 0 issues mechanically at this time. The only complaint is from my boyfriend who is 6’0, who feels slightly cramped when he drives.
Jay S

2017 ford focus: a better generation.
The car is pretty good. It gets good gas mileage, and handles well. There is a small issue with the transmission that has been found in the previous years of the focus. This 2017 is not near as bad as the 2015 and 2016 but every now and then will shake when moving forward from a dead stop. Does not happen all the time but occasionally.
Kelsey G
on March 19, 2021
Comfortable and reliable ford focus.
I have not experienced any problems with my vehicle. It drives well, is not noisy, and is very easy to control. The steering wheel is comfortable and easy to turn. My car gets great gas mileage and I drive a lot. My car has never broken down and is reliable. The seats and interior are very comfortable. The mirrors are accessible and useful. The car is very driver friendly.

2017 ford focus silver four door.
It's a four door sedan with silver paint. Seats recline and made of leather. It gets 35 miles per gallon on the highway. New radio and stereo installed. Great audio. Good storage space in trunk. Air conditioning in back seat. Pockets on driver side for extra storage. Manual drive.
Thulasi S

Ford focus hatchback is very smooth and easy to drive.
Ford focus hatchback is a compact easy-to-drive car. The gas mileage is pretty good. The brakes seem to have worn down in 2 years. I had issues with the cabin fan within 6 months of purchase and got it fixed under warranty. It is an economical car and could be sturdier.
Amy A
on March 14, 2021
Sporty blue ford focus fun.
I love that my car is compact and sporty. It is very up to date with technology and style. The color is amazing and I enjoy the bonus of colored lights I can change on the interior. The gas mileage is wonderful since I do mostly in town driving. The trunk is rather large for the size of car but has definitely come in handy.
Maria C
on March 12, 2021
Love apple CarPlay and the lights the car has inside. Fun detail.
The 2017 focus offers lots of new technology lots of other car manufacturers have only started to include now in 2019, such as carplay. The only main issue is the jerking the car can have when accelerating associated with the clutch. It seems to be a common problem amongst focus models in general.
Pat P
on March 11, 2021
Do not buy a ford car. Because I have to use 80 words or more. Do not buy a ford car.
Bought car used. Paid too much for it. Transmission issues. Look for another car. Warranties are not the best most things not covered. Fords been noted for bad transmissions from 1970’s and haven't gotten better yet. I understand that there’s a class act against ford for this reason.
Vanischa R
on March 8, 2021
I really love the Bluetooth capabilities!
The tires has to be switched, but this car will get you where you need. I would be scared to get in an accident though. It is a small car! There was a recall with this car some models have stalling engines. Mine runs perfectly smooth though and it is nice, but the material is weak.

Great amount of value for the money.
My car had never failed to start and has been very reliable. I have had no problems with the engine and no problems with the way that it runs. It gets very good gas mileage both in the city and especially on the road. Air conditioning works great and I love the individually controlled heated seats. I also love the rear camera that shows when you are backing up.
JoLee T
on February 27, 2021
My 2017 ford focus is like a tiny little spaceship.
I love the fact that it has a backup cam and Bluetooth. It drives really well on the interstate. It does take a little longer to speed up but that is because it is a smaller car. Even though it takes a little longer to speed up when I am on the interstate I feel like I am zooming past everyone. The trunk, surprisingly, has a lot of space for a smaller car.
Lara C
on February 26, 2021
Acceleration problems in high altitude.
The car has ran fairly well and not broken down at any point in the last few years. My main complaint is that the acceleration does not work particularly well. I live in the mountains, and when traveling to any higher elevation, the car does not want to speed up or keep moving. It is a very comfortable car, though, and has had no major issues.
Tiffany A
on February 23, 2021
Great car, decent size, great on gas, smooth driving, nice interior.
It's a pretty good car, I would say better for beginner drivers since the inside is a tad bit small but maybe that's a personal preference. But it's great on gas, it looks nice, the driving is smooth. It hasn't randomly broke down but we have had to replace the battery since it was previously pre owned. The seats are comfortable and the price wasn't too shabby. I would for sure recommend this car to beginners or even a small family would be perfect.
Emily J
on February 21, 2021
A few features are a reverse camera, well working ac and the car is durable.
My vehicle is very trustworthy with all the wrecks I have been in. The parts for the car is not as expensive than other cars. The gas is twenty dollars to fill up and will last you about two weeks, depending how much it is driven. It comes with multiple colors and has a reverse camera. The ac gets pretty cold so if you're a hot person this is truly a car for you.
Cesar H
on February 21, 2021
Great, smooth, gas saving car.
I have only owned the car for close to a year now. So far I have really been enjoying it. Drives smooth, saves gas, and is quiet. And even though I am not driving a supercar. Sometimes I feel like I am driving in luxury. I would recommend this car to a friend.
Lady S

Ford Focus Hatchback simply but perfect for a family of four
Reliable for a family of four. Has good trunk space. Comfortable automatic 4 cyl not a gas guzzler. Drive smoothly. Rear view camera . LCD touch screen radio. Automatic seats, window and mirror. Stereo system is decent, wish it had navigation. Had to purchase privacy cover for trunk.
Pamela C

Yolanda C

Great fuel saving compact car.
We love our Ford Focus 2017. The mileage is great. It is a good travel vehicle. Very reliable & compact. The added feature of a review camera is great for seeing everything behind u, while backing out. One of the things that would make it better would be a larger back seat.
Carol S

Wonderful ford. Best car I have ever had and my dog loves it too.
My ford is reliable and. No trouble. Great performance. Comfort and wonderful features. It is a real beauty and I am pleased to drive it. Good gas mileage and is just a great car. If I did not have this car. I would buy one. Great radio and tape system space and wonderful vacation car.
Colby L

The focus. A small but mighty sleek car.
My car is a really fancy looking car. It has a two toned interior body of black and tan. The outside paint is black. The front of my car looks fierce like a shark with beautiful headlights. The back seat is kind of small but it fits a baby car seat just fine. It is a pretty fast car and it gets you from one place to the other. I really like my car and it does not have any problems. It has only 46,000 miles on it.
Shelby M

Love the heated seats and sunroof.
I have never had any problems. I love the heated seat and heated steering wheel!! I also love the stereo system! It allows me to connect to my phone and lets me be hands free when I am driving down the road. I love the sunroof on a warm chilly fall day. Wouldn't trade it in for anything.

How a 2017 Ford focus is a great car
My car is good for long drive. I go to college far from home and what I do like about my care is that I do not have to worry about the long drive to go visit my family because my is somewhat new and I save gas and working on my car is not super hard.
Andrew C
on February 12, 2021
Commuter car with good fuel efficiency and compact design.
The performance is good. It accelerates and handles well in normal road conditions. It does not do well in the snow. The fuel efficiency is also spectacular. I only drive to and from work mostly, refueling only every other week. The compact design is the most annoying part of the vehicle. I owned a Chevy s-10 before and it was quite roomy with a wide field of view. There have been multiple recalls on the vehicle as well, though I have not responded to any of them and they have not affected the performance.
Kris G
on February 11, 2021
Nice color and always look new.
Many miles and recalls on parts bad. Problems with fuel gauge. Many miles now issues. Recalls. Cheap interior. Plastic interior breaking. Many miles and recalls on parts bad. Problems with fuel gauge. Many miles now issues. Recalls. Cheap interior. Plastic interior breaking. Not a great car.

A looks very nice and does not waste a lot of money on gas.
I really like my car it drives me everywhere I need to go and it is very dependable. It is very good on gas so I do not have to waste a lot of money on gas. Also it has a very nice look to it which I like cause it does not look too bad. I would tell anybody there wants a focus to go ahead and get one because it is a very nice car.
Daniel L
on February 8, 2021
Good commuter car for long drives to work.
I purchased this car because of my commute that is about 70 miles one way. It is mostly interstate driving. For the most part this car has served me well. Good gas mileage and decent pickup when needed. Have only had to replace tires, brakes and rotors so far.

2017 ford focus stylish review.
Reliable, great gas mileage, comfortable, stylish, small sunroof, sporty, affordable, great family starter car, great vehicle for students, great sound system, pet friendly, nice turbo, top of the line for that vehicle. It is a really enjoyable vehicle for the price of that type of vehicle and it also has ecoboost which is better for the environment.

Ford Focus is great - roomy/sunroof/all the electronic bells & whistles. Big trunk - enough phone charges for multiple people. Pretty good gas mileage

I think the seats are pretty comfortable. They are not too low.
I got it at 39,000 miles. It made a weird shuddering sound when I put the brakes. Apart from that, it is a pretty decent vehicle. Lots of leg and boot space. It does not have park assist. The handle to open the bonnet is not easily seen. There are some blind spots.

Great everyday vehicle with more creature comforts with a sporty look & power.
I love the technology, hands free audio and phone. Navigation screen is large, apps accessible, remote start, heated seats, back up camera and parking assist. I love you can set no texting while driving, great for kids!! Auto defrost side mirrors, roomy trunk, fold down back seats with trunk access. Plenty of room, great engine power and my average gas mileage is ranging from 35 to 42 on Hwy, 26 to 32 in city.

Why I love my ford focus it is a roomy comfortable ride.
My ford focus is really comfortable to drive in. The seats are comfy, good gas mileage. The temperature and radio console is easy to use. Nice and roomy for a family. Good size area in the trunk. Seat belts are comfortable also. Plenty of legroom. Console is easy to read.

My performance gray rs focus os the best!
I love the car. I haven't had any issues. I have be driving this car for about 2 years! Super reliable. I am thankful I bought the tire warranty, I have been through three tires so far! Easy screw in the tire, pop! It is not running flat tires. But I would recommend them. Lots of decals you can add as in stickers for the windows on the side triangle ones. It looks good! You can match the blue on the rs with stickers.

My 2017 ford focus. My blue buddy!
I love the ford focus. My 2017 sel was recalled for something to do with the gears. He said it was an automatic acting like a stick shift. Whatever the problem was he fixed it and it has been running well since. The color I chose was the deep blue. None of the other colors suited me. In fact in order to get the car I wanted I had it shipped from Virginia and I live in New Jersey!

Smooth riding and good control very neat radio and Bluetooth
It rides very smooth and has good control over bumps and potholes. The seats and care comfortable but if you're sitting the back seats you're not able to feel AC very well or at all. The radio system is very good and connects well with Bluetooth. I don't know if this is just my car but the brakes are very sensitive and have broken a lot.

Gas mileage is great on this car!
The hatchback feature is perfect for what I use it for. Great gas mileage and I get between 32-37 mpg always. The only issue I am having with this vehicle is that I think the transmission is having issues, and I have heard this is a common problem in this. It seems to stutter when accelerating. Otherwise it is a decent little car.

Plenty of space all around.
The focus is a good car when you're looking for a small hatchback style. The acceleration is not that great but the mileage and gas savings is great. Avery roomie on the inside and lots of legroom for passengers it is great for road trips holds a lot in the trunk.

Ford focus se hatchback 2017.
No push to start, so in the winter it is super cold and takes forever to heat up. It is just the perfect size for me and what I need for my job. Good on gas. So major problems yet. Easy to use and easy steering. Hard to drive up icy hills, does not get much traction. Easy to move out of danger.

It is solid, with a build quality that exceeds it is price.
Like: the recur bucket seats keep me in place when cornering hard. The dash layout is great, with both a touch screen and knobs. The peppy engine in the street provides tons of fun working through the gears even during daily driving. Dislike: the Ford synch system does not support very many Bluetooth apps.

Sleek, compact, and reliable.
It is a comfortable car especially for new drivers since it is a compact vehicle. I haven't had many issues with the car. The Bluetooth needed parts to be replaced a few months ago. We've taken this car for road trips countless times. The miles per gallon is amazing and we have never encountered any problems.

2017 ford focus sedan w/ manual back windows.
The transmission is very jumpy. The car has trouble accelerating and changing gears, especially on hills. I would definitely say be gentle with the transmission on this car and do not slam on the gas and avoid steep hills if you want the car to last. The brakes are a different story, very sensitive and reliable. The only big problem with this car is the transmission.

My brand new car issues. It's a lemon in my book.
I love my car. Gives me freedom. Only had it 2 yrs and the clutch broke and ford even with warranty wouldn't replace until it got really bad. Then there's already a few recalls. So much for a new reliable car. But I do love it and would buy another one. I'd just be more careful and try to get it fully checked better and.

Ford focus: fantastic mileage in an affordable vehicle.
I love my ford focus because it is affordable and gets great gas mileage. While it is not the cutest car around, it is very efficient. I also love it is media features such as the Bluetooth connectivity and media screen. It is not very big, but it is perfect for those who do long commutes!

It's reliable, does what it needs to
I like that it takes me from point A to point B without any issues, gas mileage is good, nothing seems to break, reliable in general. Dislike are that it lets in outside noise a little more than i like and in terms of options, I'd like a navigation system / android auto / apple carplay installed

I drive back and forth for 3 hours to go to college and it works great.
Battery died in two years and had to be replaced. Tire pressure falls quicker than in other cars for some reason. It drives very smoothly and can go long distances. Gets really good air circulation and all the systems work well. Does not have any special features but everything works well in the car. I go to college away from home. It is a 3 hour drive and despite all the trips I have made I have never had any significant issues.

Good car overall. Very fast.
Backup camera sensor gets knocked off and you will see a black screen for the backup camera. I haven’t really had any car performance problems but putting a mid grade gas would be better than regular. It is definitely in a car that is not meant for a very tall person.

Fast economy car with no problems.
I has no problems very reliable. No performance issues. They taught me about the technological advances. Love the black interior. 100,000 mile guarantee from my dealer. Very much worth the money. I really love it.

Compact affordable sedan that drives like a luxury sports car.
I love my car. It's compact with wide comfortable seats. I'm has plenty of legroom. Super fuel efficient and for a small car, it has a pretty good punch. It accelerates super good. The body style is sporty and looks great on me. I highly recommend it. I believe FORD'S are awesome!

My vehicle is almost as good as new as I have done a good job maintaining it.
I regularly need to get the engine checked otherwise it is in pretty good shape. Comfortable seating, great horsepower. Not that many miles on it as I do not drive much. Very durable during the winter. Great steering and control. Interior could use some work.

Great vehicle but has some reservations.
I love the interior of my vehicle, the trim level I definitely recommend. Had issues early on with the clutch going out (not a standard vehicle but still has a clutch) and was told this was common on these vehicles... After having the car 3 years was also informed ford stopped making the focus as there were too many issues with them mechanically I am assuming. Currently at 60,000+ miles and it is doing great.
