Consumer Description

FORD FOCUS 2000 SE - CAR LOSES ENGINE POWER WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 50/55 MPH. THEN WARNING SIGN LIGHTS UP AFTER A FEW MINUTES. I NOTICED THIS HAPPENS DURING HOT WEATHER MAINLY. EVEN AFTER LESS THAN 10 MILES OF DRIVING. IF I STOP THE CAR A FEW MINUTES, THE WARNING LIGHT SHUTS OFF BUT THE PROBLEM IS STILL EXISTING. DOES NOT HAPPEN DURING COLD MONTHS. *TR
