Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: This complaint is in response to help another person in electrical complaints. the flicker you have with your 2001 focus is supposedly a ground issue to the chassis. it appears to have fixed my problem with the instruments and headlights and anything electrical flickering sporadically. the fix is pretty cheap under 20 bucks and you could do it yourself if you are somewhat mechanical. as for my complaint. for a car to be in the top 10 for a few years and a great economy car this is not the car with an answer. i have such replaced 2 alternators under warranty, 3 batteries before i fixed my ground problem. replaced pvc valve 2 times, radiator, trunk release actuator, numerous headlights and fog lights, radiator and hoses that were busted from overheating, couple of belts, driver door lock, something with the gas tank i think to be a fuel pump. all of this with 30k on the car. since then i have only replaced tires and rims on the car at 130k i decided to replace any part after warranty with aftermarket gear. so now the car has a cold air intake, svt engine, aem on board computer to adjust with laptop, nitrous, aftermarket hella lights, new paint job, new dash indiglo lights, new stereo speakers, interior. so after all this i guess i should have just bought a lexus and called it a day. the car now runs great and has not had a single part failure since. *nm |
