CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2002 Ford Focus 2.0L SOHC engine has a defect where the intake valve seat fails. The valve then falls into the cylinder, destroying the engine & most owner relationships with Ford in the process.
Two mechanics have been unable to diagnose or cure the problem. The car will run for 40km before it loses power. Later there is no problem and the car runs normally before it loses power again.
