42 of the
270 complaints about the 2006 Ford Focus are about the
airbag system — 16% of everything
reported for this model year.
Half of the failures with a mileage on record happened before
65,000 miles.
My sister was driving my 2006 Ford Focus along a highway. Out of nowhere, the airbag in the side of the driver's seat deployed. This was the only airbag that deployed. The airbag deployed into the side of my sister emitting a white smoke or powder substance. She saw black from the trauma of the airbag impact. She was able to then gain control of the vehicle as no other vehicles were around. She got into the emergency lane and slowly made her way to the offramp then into a gravel parking lot. She then called her daughter to pick her up, who then took her to the ER. She was not thinking clearly or she would have called an ambulance. My husband took off work and took our car dolly and towed the vehicle to our house. My sister was diagnosed with head trauma, concussion, and whiplash. She has since been to her primary doctor who is following her care now. My sister now has ongoing foggy head, headaches, slower reactions, pain going down her leg and arm and dizziness. We have made contact with Ford and made a complaint, giving a case number and told they would contact me with 15 business days. As of today, no one has contacted us, so my sister called Ford and basically had to file another complaint, given a second case number, then told her for me to file a report with my insurance company and take the vehicle to Ford to have the airbags inspected. I immediately called my insurance company and am waiting for the adjuster to call me today. I was informed due to the price of a new airbag and the year of my Focus, it will likely be totaled. I will have the car towed to Ted Russell Ford in Knoxville as soon as I am told how to proceed with the towing by the adjuster.

2006 FORD FOCUS WAS INVOLVED IN A TWO CAR ACCIDENT WHILE TRAVELING AT 50 MPH. A LARGE PICKUP TRUCK PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF THE FORD FOCUS, AND THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED. AS A RESULT OF THE IMPACT, THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED (NO ONE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT), BUT DRIVER SUSTAINED SEVERE INJURIES OF THE LEFT EYE INCLUDING ABRASIONS, BURNS, BRUISING, AND SWELLING/INFLAMMATION AFTER HITTING A HARD SURFACE. DRIVER REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. IT IS SUSPECTED THAT THERE WAS A DELAYED DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAG WHICH RESULTED IN THE INJURIES.

I AM REPORTING ONLY THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT I HAVE EXPERIENCED WITH THE STEERING WHEEL CLOCK SPRING ON THIS CAR. THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD THE 4TH CLOCK SPRING IN UNDER 80000 MILES INSTALLED! I BELIEVE THE FIRST WAS REPLACED WITH UNDER 20,000 MILES ON THE CAR. THIS IS CONCERNING, BECAUSE OF THE SRS SYSTEM RELIANCE ON A RELIABLE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WITH THE CLOCK SPRING. A LETTER TO FORD HAS GONE WITHOUT RESPONSE. THIS IS AN OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE PART IN EITHER DESIGN OR MANUFACTURE. IN ALL OF THE TIME I HAVE BEEN DRIVING, WHICH IS 30+ YEARS, I HAVE NEVER NEEDED TO REPLACE A CLOCK SPRING ON ANY VEHICLE I EVER OWNED.

I CHOSE 'CRASH' ABOVE ONLY BECAUSE THERE WAS CONTACT BETWEEN TWO VEHICLES. AT A RED LIGHT, THE FOCUS ROLLED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT AT NO MORE THAN 3-5 MPH. AIR BAG DEPLOYED, SEAT BELTS LOCKED. ZERO DAMAGE TO EITHER VEHICLE, EXCEPT SMALL DENT TO THE LICENSE PLATE, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY BODY SHOP. AFTER INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, THEY ARE ALSO CONFUSED AS TO WHY IT DEPLOYED. ESTIMATE TO REPAIR IS $1800. IS THIS NORMAL? IS THIS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 2006 FOCUS?

I PURCHASED 2006 FORD FOCUS ZX3 IN MAY OF 2006. IT WAS A BRAND NEW CAR WITH ONLY 8 MILES ON IT. WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR IT WAS VERY LOUD AND ROUGH. I THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE IT WAS NEW AND NEEDED SOME TIME TO BE DRIVEN. AFTER THREE AND HALF YEARS NOTHING HAS CHANGED. I CALLED FORD COMPANYAND WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT TO FORD DEALER. (I TOOK IT TO FORD DEALERSHIP AND TOLD THEM WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. I ALSO STATED THAT IT STOPS SHIFTING INTO 4TH GEAR AND WILL NOT SHIFT UP IF I HAVE TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY. THE DEALER INFO: FORD BREDEMANN 2038 WAUKEGAN ROAD GLENVIEW, IL 60025 (847) 510-5585). I LEFT THE CAR FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND WHEN I CAME TO PICK IT UP I WAS TOLD THAT ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION WERE ON GOOD CONDITION. THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT NEEDED TO BE CHANGED LIKE TIRES..ETC.. HOWEVER, I HAVE HAD INSTANCES ON THE ROAD WHERE I ALMOST COULD HAVE ENDED UP KILLED JUST BECAUSE THE CAR WONT ACCELERATE. IT HAPPENED TO ME ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO. 2ND PROBLEM IS STEERING WHEEL. IT IS SO STIFF THAT ITS HARD TO TURN IT LEFT AND RIGHT. I FEEL LIKE IT IS SO UNSAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE THIS CAR..NOT JUST UNSAFE FOR ME BUT FOR OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD WAS WELL.

RE: 2006 FORD FOCUS ZX4 - IN MARCH 2011, AS I WAS DRIVING HOME UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS, THE DRIVER-SIDE AIRBAG THAT IS LOCATED IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER. I WAS NOT IN AN ACCIDENT, DID NOT HIT A POTHOLE, RUN OVER ANYTHING, OR STOP SUDDENLY. THE DEPLOYMENT CAUSED TEMPORARY HEARING LOSS IN MY LEFT EAR FOR SEVERAL DAYS AND BRUISING TO MY BACK/SHOULDER AREA FOR SEVERAL DAYS. THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG ALSO CRACKED A SECTION OF THE INSIDE OF MY CAR THAT HOUSES THE SEATBELT. WHEN THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED, IT ALSO RIPPED APART THE UPHOLSTERY ON THE ENTIRE LEFT SIDE OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT, SINCE THAT'S WHERE IT WAS LOCATED. THE NOISE AND JOLT OF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYING CAUSED ME TO SWERVE ON THE ROAD, BUT LUCKILY I DID NOT GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. THE WARRANTY ON MY CAR IS EXPIRED AND I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPLACE THE AIRBAG OR REPAIR THE DRIVER'S SEAT, SO NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN.

I HAVE A 2006 FORD FOCUS WITH APROX 65,000 MILEAGE. RECENTLY, THE AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON OCCASIONALLY, MORE OFTEN AND FOR MORE LENGTHY PERIODS MORE RECENTLY. IT SEEMS TO MATCH THE ISSUES OF NEW FORD PICKUP TRUCK RECALL IN WHICH AIRBAGS DEPLOY WITHOUT NOTICE OR CAUSE - RESULTING APPARENTLY FROM FRAYED/SHORTED SENSOR WIRES - PRECEDED BY ILLUMINATION OF AIRBAG DASHBOARD INDICATOR, AS OCCURS IN MY 2006 FORD FOCUS. IS THERE CAUSE FOR CONCERN WITH MY FAMILY'S USE OF THIS CAR? THANK YOU.

I WAS DRIVING ON I-75 AND FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER THE PASSENGER SIDE, SIDE IMPACT AIRBAG WENT OFF CAUSING THE CABIN TO FILL WITH SMOKE AND THE PASSENGER HAVE A SORE SHOULDER. WE WERE NOT IN A CRASH, DID NOT HIT A POT HOLE, ANIMAL, BUMP OR HAVE ANYTHING HAPPEN TO THE CAR. THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS ON AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY SAID BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING AND TO TURN IT INTO INSURANCE. THE CAR HAS 69,500 MILES ON IT AND SHOULDN'T MATTER IF IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY ANYMORE BECAUSE AN AIRBAG SHOULD NEVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE GO OFF UNLESS YOUR IN A CRASH. INSURANCE WILL NOT COVER THE PROBLEM. CAR IS AT DEALERSHIP GETTING AN ESTIMATE.
