Ford Focus 2007: Does this card have a cam belt or cam chain?
The 1.6-litre engine has a timing belt, the larger 2.0-litre engines also offered in the Focus have timing chains.
Ford Focus: Is the convertible a good buy?
The Focus convertible holds its value quite well, but the market value of a car hinges on a number of things, such as age, mileage, condition, history etc. A car that has low mileage, is in good condition with a good service history will carry a higher value than one that has done a lot of kays and has been neglected.
Ford Focus 2007: Failed bonnet lock?
I too would be disappointed if the bonnet catch on my car failed, but as your car is seven years old I doubt that you would get a sympathetic hearing. But you might, so even though you have been rejected I would write to Ford Customer Assistance and explain your case for compensation. If you want to take it further you could have a solicitor write the letter for you, or you could consult Consumers Affairs.
2007 Ford XT vibration
It's most likely the brake booster, which is a known problem on Falcons of that era. The brakes are not completely releasing. Adjusting the rod between the brake master cylinder and the booster, or replacing the booster can fix it.
Ford Focus 2007: Clunking over 20km/h
No, it's not normal. You need to have a mechanic determine what is causing it. It sounds like it's coming from the driveline, but you first need to determine what it is before you can fix it.
Ford Focus: Squeaking noise
It won't be the springs, but it could be bushes in the front suspension. It's not a huge problem and can be fixed quite easily.
