May Ford Focus has been flawless so far, with about 13,000 mi on it.

Evidence that Ford Foci have more problems than other cars, please.

Wow, 13,000 miles and nary a problem yet? That's amazing! You'll have to
accept anecdotal evidence (shouldn't be a problem since you freely offer
the same), but I see virtually every Focus nickel and dime their
customers pretty badly, and a good number cause enough expensive
problems to total the car (as they lose value very quickly that isn't
too hard). It's tough to sell anything as their customers don't spend
any money anyway. As I said in an earlier post, I think the Focus is
actually a bit better in reliability and cost of ownership than most
other Ford products, but that isn't saying much.
