Ford Focus Usados en Venta en Irvine, CA

I loved my car at first. I loved the style for the price. Of course I wanted a fancy car that was a luxury vehicle but I was a first time buyer and minimum wage was 7.25. I had always wanted a smaller car. I thought it was the perfect size for me. And it still is. I loved how it was extremely more advanced than my 2008 Honda CR-V. At first my car was very smooth. very new gliding on air feeling. pretty soon after we had to pick up and move across the country. We drove from North Carolina to California in 5 days. I have so many memories in that car. Did I forget to mention we have 2 dogs? Oh, yeah. we have 2 dogs, 1 large breed and one giant breed. We also shoved everything we could into the car without blocking the windows. It wasn't a luxurious roomy drive but it was actually comfortable. It is a great size. The mileage on it is amazing. My husband is the primary driver now and drives it to and form work. his work is about 30 miles away so that helps us a lot. Gas prices are crazy in California. Unfortunately we got a letter in the mail stating that all of the focus and fiestas of 2016 had a transmission recall. Our car began to stutter after a few months. I thought it was my husbands driving. Thank goodness it wasn`t. but now I have to return my car. I will be getting a new one instead of fixing the transmission. I just cant take a chance on the car now that I know it has problems and possibly more. if it wasn't for the transmission issue I would like the car. the inside is something you have to pay close attention to. its like cheap plastic. All in all if the car was cheaper and had no manufacturer errors I might recommend it to a first time buyer who only needs a car to go to and from work.

What I like about this car is that it has great gas mileage. I only have to fill the tank up about every two weeks and so even when gas prices go through the roof, I'm not too worried. The car itself however seems poorly made. Especially now that it's been a few years it tends to make rattling noises as if something is going to come off around the stereo area. It has plenty of room however, especially in the back. It could be a bit more comfortable though. The last year the car has been in the shop a lot, it has developed a lot of little problems that are starting to irk me. Because I bought it at the dealer, I get a free oil change from them every six months which has helped my cut my costs greatly. It isn't anything special when driving it though. I do feel safe when I drive it though which I think is something very important in a car, especially because one drives it sometimes at more than 65 mph.

I loved how much "get up" the vehicle had for being so small. It really felt more like a sports car even though its just kind of a budget sedan.
