Owner Complaints (7)
While driving on the highway my 2016 ford focus stalled without warning and would not start until after having it towed. When I go to the gas station after filling the gas tank my vehicle is either hard to start or doesn't start until after waiting a while. This happens often.

The contact’s girlfriend’s daughter owns a 2016 Ford Focus. The contact stated while his girlfriend’s daughter was driving 65 MPH, she either drove over a pothole or a rock on the roadway and the vehicle started jerking. The driver veered to the side of the roadway to inspect the vehicle and noticed damage to the front driver’s side bumper that was detached from the subframe.

The rear quarter glass seals have both started leaking within 2 months of each other. Water enters through the seal leak and enters the hatch and under rear seats. I have verified this is the leak by spraying a water hose on the outside and watching it leak pretty heavily in the inside of the vehicle.

Both hatch struts failed within 1 year of purchasing the car new from dealer. Struts failed without warning and hatch dropped on head. After strut failure, the hatch was a serious safety hazard as it would slam shut in a way that would easily take off a finger or a hand.
