 I bought a used 2012 Ford Focus SEL. While its a sharp looking car, the amount of time it has spent in the shop is ridiculous. The dual clutch is a joke. It went into the shop for shuddering, they replaced the TCM or reprogrammed it (not sure which one).. It lasted a few months but then had to go back into the shop for the same thing.  they replaced the clutch.  That was 4 mons ago and it is now back in the shop to replace the clutch AGAIN.  if I didn't have a warranty, I would be trading it in just to get rid of the headache
