ECU Failed in my 5 year old Ford Focus. My Ford Focus cost me 1200 Euro to replace the ECU (Electronic Control Unit) and ignition coil. Two cylinders only would fire so I barely got it to the repair guy. He said the coil may have pulled down the ECU output on two cylinders and so it damaged the ECU.

My 1993 honda prelude is still going perfectly at 100,000 miles with nothing like the Ford repair bills!!! A honda civic will replace my Ford focus for sure.
