DEALER CONTINUES TO TREAT THE SYMPTOMS, NOT CURE THE DISEASE.  SOMETHING IS CAUSING THIS TO HAPPEN CONTINUOUSLY.  NUMEROUS FOCUS OWNERS AT LEAST THROUGH 2003 EXPERIENCE SAME ISSUES.  SERVICE ADVISOR ADMITTED TO ME THAT THEY \"REPLACE A LOT OF BATTERIES AND ALTERNATORS IN FOCUSES\" AND THAT \"IT SEEMS TO BE INORDINATELY HIGH NUMBERS\".  OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR INCLUDE 3 SETS OF INFERIOR BRAKE PADS (FINALLY HAD A GOOD SET INSTALLED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC) AND CRACKED MOTOR MOUNTS CAUSING INTENSE VIBRATION ESPECIALLY WHEN ENGINE IS COLD.  SEEKING REMEDY FOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES - CONSIDERING CONSULTING ATTORNEY TO START CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT.  CONCERNED ABOUT POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.  MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING THIS CAR FOR PAST 2 YEARS, FINALLY KNUCKLED AND BOUGHT HER A GREAT CHRYSLER PT CRUISER FOR HER PERSONAL SAFETY.  I AM NOT IN A POSITION TO ACQUIRE ANOTHER VEHICLE FOR MYSELF AND MUST CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE FOCUS UNTIL OTHERWISE CAPABLE OF ANOTHER VEHICLE.  WILL NEVER BUY FORD AGAIN. *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2000","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"FOCUS","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
