I LITERALLY JUST BOUGHT THE CAR WITH THE SHUDDERING WHEN COMING OFF OF A COMPLETE STOP AND WAS TOLD IT WAS MY TIRES. I HAVE GOTTEN ALL NEW TIRES AND IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM NOT SOLVED. THEN MY CAR STARTED TO HAVE A BIGGER PROBLEM WITH THE RADIO ONE DAY OUT OF NO WHERE MY SPEAKERS STARTED TO BE STATICKY. THE NEXT DAY IT WAS STATIC AND VERY LOUD POPPING NOISE ALMOST MAKING ME GET INTO AN ACCIDENT ON THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE IT IS SO LOUD. I HAVE TO PULL OVER EVERY 10 MINUTES AND SHUT THE CAR OFF WITH MOST OF THE TIME THE NOISE STILL GOING WITH THE CAR OFF. NOW I CANNOT SEE ANYTHING ON MY RADIO SCREEN OTHER THAN THE DATE AND TIME WITH A BLACK SCREEN. I HAVE THE RADIO AND SCREEN OFF AND THIS LOUD POPPING / STATIC NOISE IS UNSAFE TILL THIS DAY.

MY 1.0L FOCUS HAD A DEFECTIVE CANISTER PURGE VALVE AND SUFFERED FROM STALLING AS DESCRIBED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN 18V735000. THE ACTIVE DIAGNOSTIC CODES AND LOCAL FORD DEALER DIAGNOSIS CONFIRMED THE CANISTER PURGE VALVE HAD FAILED. THE ONLY REMEDY WAS TO PAY FOR MY LOCAL DEALER TO REPLACE THE CANISTER PURGE VALVE OUT OF POCKET SINCE MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE REFERENCED RECALL. THERE ARE MANY OTHER 1.0L FOCUS OWNERS THAT HAVE SAID THEIR CANISTER PURGE VALVES HAVE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED IN ONLINE FORUMS.. *TR

WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL AT IDLE, THERE IS A LOUD GRINDING NOISE. THERE IS NO INCREASE IN RESISTANCE. WHEN DRIVING THE POWER ASSIST INTERMITTENTLY WILL FAIL. IT SEEMS TO GO ON AND OFF AS YOU DRIVE AT 35-45 MPH ON CITY STREETS. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING SIMPLY FOLLOWING THE CURVES IN THE ROAD. I WILL NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE ANY FASTER AS I AM CONCERNED IF IT FAILS UNEXPECTEDLY AT HIGHER SPEED, IT WILL RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT.
