2007 Ford Focus Electrical system Problems

“I've had to get the wheel bearings fixed 3 times. The electrical warning lights go off and on for example the engine light comes on and then goes off for no reason and the same with the airbag light. Also the sensor for the passenger seat that senses a person or a inanimate load is incorrect sometimes. And last, when I punch my excellorator to go on the freeway, it doesn't kick into overdrive every time. More times it doesn't than does.”

“When I first noticed, it was around the 45 MPH when I felt the jerking of the vehicle. As time went on it started to do that at 35 and (sometimes or) 45 MPH. This past tuesday 3rd of june 2014 it started to do this at 15, 25, 35, and 45 MPH from sitting at the red light and moving forward. After getting a tune-up.. It is a little better but it still does that at 35 and some times at 45.”

“Rear taillight bulb blows out as if an electrical short in wiring. Bulb will look black, even the socket has black discoloration. This has been an on-going problem since we purchased car in 2009 with both the left and right rear tail lights. To date I have replaced about 15-20 bulbs to the extent I purchased two (2) boxes of bulbs a socket wrench and correct socket to keep in car to replace bulbs each time it happens.”

“I got my vehicle from an auction site, so I do not have any history on it before 2016. The engine light comes on and goes off at regular intervals, especially, when the car is in extremely cold or hot temperatures. The gas pedal, also, gets stuck, regularly, I would have to be very careful with my pressure on the gas pedal to avoid hitting anything. I have noticed this, over the years, with the car in stationary mode and while the car is in motion, city or highway driving but, especially, after having to perform a hard brake in traffic. …”

“The lock on the rear passenger side door will not lock. Doesn't lock with the rest of the doors and I cannot lock manually. Anyone could come open it at any time and take whatever they want. It is not safe. I am afraid if someone rides back there it will pop open if they lean on it.”
