Recalls

There have been more than a dozen recalls affecting these particular Focus models, involving both petrol and diesel cars and all body styles, which is more than we have room to cover adequately here. Issues ranged from brake and power steering faults to problems with rear hub bolts and a potential fire risk due to corroded engine cooling fan electrics. An online check of the Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency database will reveal more details and, needless to say, you’ll want to be sure they’ve been addressed on the car you’re looking at.
