I have just acquired this vehicle in oct or sep of 2018. It has been a pretty good car up until now. The airbag light comes on and off intermittently and now the engine light is on. My mechanic checked why the engine light was on with his computer and has said it's a fuel issue. I take it back to him on thursday to go over the fuel system and engine to better diagnose the issue. In the meantime, I've been looking up various complaints and issues with my 2007 ford focus and not stating the specific issues and the two main complaints and recalls that keep coming upstate that there have been numerous airbags and fuel system issues. These are both the issues I'm having. The airbags light keeps coming on and off without the system being reset. The engine light is on and hasn't gone off. It came on when my husband filled the tank up about 3-4 weeks ago. The only reason we've not had my mechanic look at is due to income. I'm disabled, my husband is in the process of retiring in september and he was injured on the job and has been out for about 5 months. I wouldn't have even looked on the internet to see if there were recalls but we're making a trip to durham in july and need a reliable vehicle and are concerned about the engine catching fire or not getting the fuel needed. Please let me know if this has been any safety issues with this make and model of car. Thank you.

I've had to get the wheel bearings fixed 3 times. The electrical warning lights go off and on for example the engine light comes on and then goes off for no reason and the same with the airbag light. Also the sensor for the passenger seat that senses a person or a inanimate load is incorrect sometimes. And last, when I punch my excellorator to go on the freeway, it doesn't kick into overdrive every time. More times it doesn't than does.

Similar to the federal safety agency campaign number 18v735000, I've experienced many occurrences where the vehicle stalls when coming to a stop. This is far more likely to occur if the gas tank is less than half full. The first instance of this was around 2011, but has happened much more frequently since then. When this occurs, the vehicle decelerates, comes to a complete stop, and then then engine cuts out, dropping the rpms down to 0. This then requires the driver to put the car into park, turn off the car, turn the car back on, and then return the car to gear.

I am driving on the highway, and the used car I just bought with in the last week is shuddering, jerking, and slip out of gear. It only had one owner, and a little over 56,000 miles. Now I have only put 125 miles on it, and it does this. Since it slows down quickly with a fierce jerk of the car, I was lucky and did not cause an accident because of the problem, and other cars behind me slamming on there brakes.

The fuel gauge doesn't read correctly and could result in the car running out of gas leaving someone stranded.

While attempting to stop the vehicle, the throttle stuck open and the engine ran over 2,000 RPM. It was difficult to stop and almost caused the car to rear end stopped traffic.

My air conditioner quit working to soon only about 4 years old at the time was told by mechanic that my compressor was out completly. I also have changed my low beam head light about 4 times why? Another problem I have is my rear end tires keep wearing out way faster than the front tires why? Also while I drive my car squeaks the noise comes from my dash and under my dash more so when I drive slower like around town also why?
