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.

This is the 3rd door that wont latch. I fixed the other two times because of no recall !! There is a recall about this issue , but not on the 2008 . This year needs to be recalled as well! Could be very dangerous if the door flies open going down the highway!!!!
