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.
My airbag light came on steady. Took it in to my local Ford dealer to have it looked at. $90 later, they tell me it will cost over $700 to replace the seatbelt retractor assembly on the front passenger seat because it shorted. If I don't get it fixed, I was told NONE of my airbags would deploy in an accident. Invoice said 10FOZ Electrical. DTC B00C2-11-OCSM.
Had the car at Covert Ford in Austin, TX to get the air conditioning compressor replaced under warranty because it had locked up. Upon driving home I noticed the air bag light was on and it wasn't on when I brought the car in. Didn't bring the car back to the dealership right away nor did I report it right away which was a mistake on my part. Now the dealership refuses to fix it and it is out of warranty so I'm stuck with a non functioning air bag system.
