2000 Ford Focus Interior lighting Problems

“The dome light blew out inside the vehicle's compartment. Following that, a factory installed security system for the door locks began to perform erratically. Doors prevented entry from the outside and exit from the inside, except for the hatchback. Even if the door locks were pushed they failed to open.”

“At idle the head lights, dash board lights, and internal dome light flicker with cycle of engine. Ford certified mechanic does not acknowledge the problem, nor a remedy to the flickering. Flickering still exists!”

“Nothing but problems with the car. First noticed leak in the floorboard on the front passenger side as the dealer detailed car. Interior dome light fell off soon after, followed by the fuel gate door and the left drivers side mirror. Now my transmission has blown up, all while going 25 MPH or under, and all under 21,000 miles! We've had a major recall on average every other month too. What a lemmon! (tiresize: p195/60r15)”

“I want to report a problem with my Focus. My car seems to have a problem that the dealer is not able to pinpoint. Whenever I have my lights on at night I have a bad poblem with the headlights flickering along with my dash lights. The dealer says it cant duplicate the problem but it happens every time I turn the lights on. My niece also has a 2000 Focus and it does the same thing. I think there is a problem with the electrical system on this car along with the many other problems with this car. Have you gotten any other complaints of this nature. It seems to be a ground problem. …”

“Interior lights come on intermittently. Brakes make noise when applied/ radio will come on intermittently, and dome lights work intermittently. . Right front light is brighter than left light. Defroster malfunctions. Front tires makes squeaking noise, key get stuck in ignition and truck lock when trying to get out.”
