What Owners Say
"A/C stopped working and about 6 months later the compressor went out causing the car to die and not restart. This resulted in it requiring to be towed."
Sheila S., MO (2010 Ford Focus 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"The A.C. was not producing cold enough air. It works better now."
Anonymous, FL (2010 Ford Focus S 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"I purchased this used car in July of this year. When out on a test drive I noticed the air coming out of the vents was not cold at all. The vehicle inspection sheet did not reflect that the a/c was not functional. The service department re-examined this issue and concluded that the compressor required replacement. Their quote to repair this defect was approximately $900 (25% of the initial asking price). I declined the repair and plan to fix it myself."

Anonymous, AZ (2010 Ford Focus SE 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"Air Conditioner stopped working...blew hot air. $1,500 replaced."
Anonymous, CA (2010 Ford Focus SEL 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"The AC unit had to be replaced 2 years ago and now it needs to be replaced again"
K M., IL (2010 Ford Focus 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"At 185000 miles the compressor bearings failed (They were worn out)"
Anonymous, MI (2010 Ford Focus SES 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"Refrigerant leak was traced to compressor. As a result, compressor needed to be changed"
Anonymous, ON (2010 Ford Focus S 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"Air condition stopped working. Ford charged us almost $2000 to repair!!"
David K., KY (2010 Ford Focus SE 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"Cold air was not blowing"
Carol H., TX (2010 Ford Focus SE 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"The blower stream seems to be uneven at times and needed adjustment. I'm not sure if it is a separate problem or related to the compressor problems but refrigerant had to be added on other occasions although no leaks could be found"
K M., IL (2010 Ford Focus 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"I think this was included n the AC issue."
Anonymous, AZ (2010 Ford Focus SE 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"Condenser and blower are through dash board design. Part alone costs over $1000, and requires removal of dashboard to install. Not worth fixing on a 10 year old car."
Anonymous, (2010 Ford Focus SEL 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"It failed. Spent $200 to recharge, then was told $2500 to repair. Negotiated and dealer picked up some cost and paid $800+tax for repair. Not impressed that it failed so soon"
Daniel H., NY (2010 Ford Focus SES 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"Apparently the original evaporator is known to go bad and develop leaks. Ford has issued a new design which costs over $800 just for the evaporator. Total cost to replace is nearly $2000 because the entire dashboard and steering column must be remo"
Phillip T., TX (2010 Ford Focus SE 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"Cracked evaporator coil, cost $1500 to repair"
Anonymous, NC (2010 Ford Focus SES 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"The evaporator failed and the auto repair shop said that it failed way too early (not 'old' enough to typically fail) based on their experience"
Anonymous, TN (2010 Ford Focus SEL 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"The cost to fix the evaporator would have been over $2000.00 but I had purchased insurance which paid for most of it. My bill was over $500.00 for hoses, refrigerant etc"
H C., PA (2010 Ford Focus 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"Evaporator had to be replaced. This necessitated the complete removal of the dashboard (and steering column). Lots of labor on this job. My dealer did an excellent job of getting everything back together, but it wasn't quick or cheap fix."
Anonymous, IN (2010 Ford Focus SEL 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"The air conditioning stopped cooling. Problem determined to be evaporator core which sits behind console. Requires taking console out, etc. Costly and time consuming."
Warren L., TN (2010 Ford Focus SEL 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"the thermostat went out completely and had to be replaced. I was getting no heat in the car; out side temp -30"
Kim R., MN (2010 Ford Focus SE 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"Coolant leaked from system. Dealer unable to detect any leak"
Anonymous, AL (2010 Ford Focus SE 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"The entire air conditioning system had to be replaced which is ridiculous for a car that only had about 24,000 miles on it. ' No more Fords for me"
Anonymous, OH (2010 Ford Focus SEL 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"We still have not fixed it because the leak is under the dash and the labor expense is prohibitive. Plan on replacing the car soon"
Anonymous, OH (2010 Ford Focus 2.0-L 4 Cyl)"Evaporator devoloped a hole that caosed a refridgerant leak. Caused the A/C not to operate."

"A/C lost refrigerant and stopped cooling. Fix involved replacing compressor."
