CarComplaints.com Notes: You should probably steer clear of the 2012 Focus. Otherwise, you might not be able to steer at all.
The 2012 is the first Focus to offer Electronic Power Assist Steering (EPAS). It's also the first year with massive power steering failure. These things are not mutually exclusive.
And while you wait for your steering to disappear, you'll be greeted with a transmission that shudders, vibrates or won't shift at all.

I have never had a water pump failure on a car under 150,000 miles. Ford needs to consider upping the warranty time because this sucks. If it were up to me the transmission/clutch issue would have been an immediate recall and replacement/reimbursement for all drive train related issues. Never going to buy a Ford anything ever again.
