CarComplaints.com Notes: Even though the first model year of a major redesign should typically be avoided, Ford did a good job & the 2008 Ford Focus doesn't appear to have any major defects.
That said, the following model years of this 2nd generation Focus (2009-2011) do appear to be slightly better.

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S
Purchased Vehicle new in June 2008 (am the only owner). The vehicle presently has just shy of 48,000 Kilometres on it. I've noticed now when stopped in traffic with my right foot on the brake that the passenger side seat will just sit there and rattle. If I put my hand on the head rest or the body of the seat it will stop, I let go and it continues to rattle.
NOT HAPPY.
Update from Jan 18, 2016: Turned out to be a result mostly from bad motor mounts. at 30-40 thousand kilometres.
The rubber in them goes bad.
