NHTSA Complaint #10114744 — 2001 FORD FOCUS

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW MANY RECALLS CAN A CAR HAVE BEFORE IT IS A LEMON! MY 2001 FORD FOCUS HAS HAD EVERY PROBLEM OUT THERE AND MORE THAN HALF OF THEM, I HAVE HAD TO PAY FOR. IN THE 4 YEARS I?VE OWNED THIS CAR, I HAVE HAD THE BATTERY REPLACED AT MY COST DUE TO STALLING, WHICH TURNED OUT TO BE THE FAULTY FUEL PUMP?S FAULT, SO THAT WAS REPLACED; THE STRUTS REPLACED AT MY COST AFTER THEY CAUSED MY FRONT TIRE TO EXPLODE ON THE FREEWAY; THE BUSHINGS WORKED ON 3 TIMES YET THE SUSPENSION STILL MAKES A VERY FRIGHTENING NOISE EVERY TIME I DRIVE. IMAGINE MY SURPRISE (OR SHOULD I TRUTHFULLY SAY, LACK OF?) WHEN I RECEIVED YET ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL. *AK
