Esp a car thread involving the (recall prone) Ford Focus, I'm shocked.

SVT Focus is like a gocart with a big block.

Me too. His is such a POS that Ford is actually buying it back for what he paid two years ago. Only kick is that the money has to be used toward another Ford product.

Not really. It's powertrain-only after the initial 3/36 warranty is up. The Focus has had a lot of trouble with little stuff, but not much with the engines and transmissions. They've been pretty solid.

not as much as chrysler is doing... more to match what the japanese do i guess.
