It's been replaced twice under that "we don't have any choice but to cover this thing" warranty Ford offers. The Focus would be a great car with a manual, but she can't drive a manual.
My son in law traded in his first gen Escape for a 2013, 1.6 EcoBoost. Did it without asking me first. I'd have told him to run like Mexican water through a first-time tourist.
The transmission has a known fault caused mostly by inferior factory parts. Had to be rebuilt, luckily covered under his used car warranty. Ford and GM developed that transmission jointly, it's used in the Fusion, was also used in the Malibu, Cruze, and IIRC Impala. The rebuild was done with Sonnex parts, so he's good now.
But that engine has an issue with ingesting coolant and contaminating the engine oil under boost.
He traded the old Escape (had the V6) because of a rattle from the rear end. Never asked me to look at that either. Probably just a sway bar end link.
You should watch some of the FordTechMakuloco vids on YouTube. By the way, that's pronounced "Ford Tech Make You Loco."
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
