I recently had my engine blow up for a second time. Last June the valve seats in the engine busted and ended up ruining the pistons. It only had about 60,000 miles on it. So we went ahead and just replaced the engine with a used one. After my engine failed I know of 2 other people who had the same problem with their focus. Then, yet again, just this January the same exact thing happened to the new engine we put in. This time we are just taking the car to the junk yard because we are tired of messing with the piece of crap! It's not worth it when it keeps happening to all the motors. I would not recommend this car to anyone.
