NHTSA Complaint #761259 — 2000 FORD FOCUS

MOLDING ON RIGHT REAR PASSENGER DOOR COMING OFF; DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN VEHICLE B/C OF ALL THE RECALLS AND CAN'T TAKE OFF WORK FOR ALL OF THESE RECALLS; THUMPING COMING FROM UNDER STEERING COLUMN, TOLD THAT IT IS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE CAR, BUT SOUNDS LIKE SAME PROBLEM THAT WAS RECALLED IN REAR WHEEL BEARINGS; OVERDRIVE OFF BUTTON DOESN'T WORK; BRAKES SQUEAK AND WEAR DOWN TOO EASILY AND I HAD TO PAY TO GET THEM REPLACED;THIS CAR IS A PIECE OF JUNK. I BOUGHT A NEW CAR B/C I DID NOT HAVE TIME TO GET MY OLD CAR FIXED ALL OF THE TIME. I THOUGHT BUYING A NEW CAR WOULD ELIMINATE THIS, BUT I TAKE THIS TO THE SHOP ALL THE TIME FOR RECALLS AND PROBLEMS. THIS IS INSANE! SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE!
