Used Ford Focus for Sale in Chandler, AZ

The 2006 is a small car with great gas mileage but little engine power. Acceleration is slow! It is a nice looking car that comes in a variety of colors. The upholstery holds up really well over time. The big advantage to this car is, of course, the low price. For the cost, its reliable and cheap to operate and repair. Its easy to find a mechanic to work on a Ford and it will probably cost less to repair than a lot of other cars. The Focus is small enough to park in tight spaces which is great compared to all the room an SUV or truck needs. Despite being such a small car, the trunk space is huge and the back seats fold down. You can easily fit a 6 foot folding table in the back. You do sacrifice some good things to get the cheap price. The soundproofing is almost nonexistent. The shocks are cheap so it can be a bumpy ride. The worst thing about this car is that the air filter is not replaceable. You have to pay to replace the whole air filter housing after the car has 80,000 miles on it. Pros: gas mileage, cost, reliability Cons: air filter isn't replaceable, poor shocks, slow acceleration

I purchased my 2008 Ford Focus in 2014. At first, the car ran perfectly. There were no rattling noises, and it handled great. After about a year of owning it, the water pump needed to be replaced. At the time, I thought "this is fine, these things happen," but then the radiator needed to be replaced, followed by the catalytic converter. All of these repairs were costly, and it really started to add up. After replacing so many things on the car, it never really ran as well as it did when I first purchased it. It rattled, and it didn't accelerate as fast. The whole experience made me weary of purchasing cars manufactured by Ford.
