2013 Ford Focus SE
Cut and paste the following link for a more exhaustive view of this vehicle...running, driving and overall condition: http://youtu.be/4r8C095xKrw For your consideration, I am selling my 2013 Ford Focus SE, Hatchback. This vehicle is in excellent condition with 5,450 (five thousand, four-fifty) miles, 2.0 liter inline four cylinder fuel injected DOHC gasoline engine, automatic transmission with console shift, front wheel drive and four wheel anti-lock disc brakes. I am the second owner of this Ford Focus SE and it is an excellent looking, running and driving vehicle which offers a combined 33 plus MPG with approximately 325 (city) to 450 (hwy) mileage range per 12.4 gallon tank of fuel. The 2.0 liter engine is extremely clean, electronic ignition starts immediately without hesitation, runs smoothly and quietly at idle, does not miss or smoke and produces 160 hp and 162 ft-lbs of torgue. The engine is mated to an automatic 6-speed transmission which shifts seamlessly and is very responsive in passing gears. This is a compact/economy car (for insurance purposes) but rides and drives more like a mid-size car with plenty of room for a driver and four passengers, loads of horse-power, responsive handling, excellent braking and produces a ride quality unbeatable for a vehicle in this category. The exterior of this vehicle is nearly flawless and shows extremely well; the paint is beautiful medium blue candy metallic-pearl in very good condition with high gloss and deep shine. The body panels are laser straight with no dents, dings or physical damage. All glass is clean and clear and the power windows raise/lower as anticipated. The wheels are 16" aluminum five spoke in perfect condition with Continental Conti-Procontact tires also in like new condition. The hatchback compartment is very spacious and the spare tire, wheel well and tire tool kit are in unused condition. All exterior lights work and function as they should. The interior feature beige hybrid material, adjustable front bucket seats with lumbar support and a rear bench seat in excellent condition. The carpet is flawless charcoal; the headliner is clean and tight. The dash is in perfect condition as well as the center console and arm rest. Conveniences include: power mirrors, cruise control, remote trunk release; hands free calling, stereo CD player with steering wheel controls and 6 speakers, MP3 auxiliary port, 12 volt adapter, in dash computer, Blue Tooth link, vanity mirror inserts, Destination Guidance Service capable and Sirius XM. The heater warms quickly and the air blows ice cold. All interior gauges and lights function as they should, owner's manual and factory literature is included within the glove compartment as well as two keys with remote locking, trunk release and alarm mode. As noted this vehicle will come with an Illinois issued rebuilt title. Within the first year of purchase, this vehicle side swiped another vehicle causing minor damage to the passenger side rear door and quarter panel. These items were professionally repaired by a reputable local collision center and fully inspected by the IL Secretary of State. As was explained to me at the time of purchase, the original owner had full-replacement coverage and thus the vehicle was replaced by the insurance company which by default labeled this vehicle as rebuilt. I have spoken with and have the contact information for the repair center where the repair was completed and I would be happy to pass this information along to you if you desire further verification. The Ford Focus SE is categorized as an compact/economy hatchback, well appointed, comfortable and reliable. I believe any interested party would agree that this definition applies to the vehicle I am offering for sale; with 5450 original miles, it is extremely close to perfect. This Focus is a no excuses vehicle; synthetic oil/filter are newly changed, 32 point inspection at my local Ford Dealership (all good), the car has been fully detailed, there are no warning lights illuminated on the instrument cluster, this car will need nothing at the time of purchase. It is a very comfortable and extremely easy to operate, own and maintain vehicle. Drive any distance at any time and maintain excellent fuel economy while doing it. I encourage you to inspect this vehicle in person or have this vehicle inspected by any automotive service you deem trustworthy. . .but you will not be disappointed, this is a very nice looking, running and driving car in as-new condition. Please text or call Mark at two one seven, four nine four, two eight seven five, for more information, viewing or test drive. |

Ford recalling 390,000 cars over door latch woes
Fri, Apr 24 2015Ford is recalling certain Fiesta, Fusion and Lincoln MKZ vehicles due to faulty door latches, marking the latest in what seems to be a recurring issue for the Blue Oval. This is the third door latch recall from Ford in 2015, following a 213,000-unit recall in March and a 205,000-unit recall in January. This one, however, is significantly larger. A total of 390,000 units are affected, including Fusions and MKZs from model years 2013 and 2014, as well as Fiestas from model years 2012 to 2014. A "broken pawl spring tab" is the culprit, potentially keeping doors from latching shut. According to Ford, even if the door does shut, it could come open again without warning. The affected Fiestas were built between February 1, 2012 and May 31, 2013 at the Cuautitlan, Mexico factory. The Fusion and MKZ siblings, meanwhile, were screwed together at Hermosillo Assembly in Mexico between July 1, 2012 to May 31, 2013. Ford is aware of three minor reports of door malfunctions. In two cases, the door bounced back open, quite literally hitting drivers on their way out. In the third case, a door swung open of its own accord while a driver was attempting to park, hitting another vehicle. Ford will notify owners, who will need to report into dealers to have all four latches replaced. Scroll down for the official press release. Related Video: APR 24, 2015 | DEARBORN, MICH. FORD MOTOR COMPANY ISSUES SAFETY RECALL IN NORTH AMERICA FOR DOOR LATCH ISSUE ON FORD FIESTA AND FUSION, LINCOLN MKZ Ford Motor Company is issuing a safety recall for approximately 390,000 2012-2014 Ford Fiesta and 2013-2014 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ vehicles for a door latch issue. The door latch in these vehicles may experience a broken pawl spring tab, which typically results in a condition where the door will not latch. If a customer is then able to latch the door, there is potential the door may unlatch while driving, increasing the risk of injury. Ford is aware of two allegations of soreness resulting from an unlatched door bouncing back when the customer attempted to close it, and one accident allegation when an unlatched door swung open and struck an adjacent vehicle as the driver was pulling into a parking space. Affected vehicles include certain 2012-2014 Ford Fiesta vehicles built at Cuautitlan Assembly Plant, Feb.
Ford Escort returns... as a concept
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Ford is kickin' it old school at the Shanghai Motor Show for 2013 with a new Escort Concept - "a name that stirs up thoughts of basic, affordable transportation rather than great driving dynamics or bold design" as we said in our initial preview of the small C-segment sedan. Or, as Ford puts it, "Customers in China described seeking a vehicle that is stylish - but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Potato, potahto...
It's an interesting amalgam of design notes with Ford's recent and stylish hexagonal grille up front, flanked by some pretty busy LED light clusters and chrome-trimmed air intakes at the lower extremities of the fascia, but the Escort Concept is not altogether unattractive. Besides its external appearance, we really don't have much information to report - Ford has not yet hinted at what may be powering this little machine, but we'd expect something with four cylinders and less that 2.0 liters of displacement sending a modest number of horses to the front tires.
It probably goes without saying, but we don't expect to see this Escort make its way to the United States, since we already have the Focus and the Fiesta battling it out in the econobox segment. That said, it's very likely to spawn a production model that will roll out here in China and in other developing market where multiple C-segment entries are becoming increasingly common. Check out our high-res image gallery of live images above, and let us know what you think of the car's styling, then scroll down below for the official press release.
Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor to get 365-hp EcoBoost option
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Speeders beware, the police are going to be getting quite a bit faster. Ford has just announced that it will be offering its 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged, EcoBoost V6 in the Explorer Police Interceptor. The new engine will be joining the existing 3.7-liter V6. The 365-horsepower, 350-pound-foot mill should be familiar to consumers as the powerplant that's found in the Ford Taurus SHO (and its LEO equivalent, the Taurus Police Interceptor) and the Ford Explorer Sport. It should also provide quite a kick in the pants to officers used to the naturally aspirated 3.7 and its 304 ponies and 279 pound-feet of torque.
The move to the more potent powerplant was born out of all the equipment officers need to carry on a day-to-day basis. These days, there's so much stuff that police need on a regular basis, that there's a genuine market for a faster Police Interceptor Utility, as it's known officially. The Explorer-based cruiser has already accounted for 68 percent of Ford's LEO sales in 2013, and that's with just the 3.7, and we'd only expect that number to increase once the twin-turbo, 3.5-liter V6 is available. Ford won't offer up any indication of what the take rate will be on the new engine, but we're guessing it'll be fairly high.
The success of the Explorer PI couldn't have come at a better time for Ford. The decision to end Crown Victoria production was not a popular one with police, and combined with Chevrolet and Dodge diving into the LEO market feet first, Ford hasn't been performing as well as it's wanted to. The Explorer has been helping it turn around, though. And with the inclusion of the EcoBoost, Ford also has a legit competitor for the Chevrolet Tahoe on the big utility side of the police market.
