CarComplaints.com Notes: You should probably steer clear of the 2012 Focus. Otherwise, you might not be able to steer at all.

The 2012 is the first Focus to offer Electronic Power Assist Steering (EPAS). It's also the first year with massive power steering failure. These things are not mutually exclusive.

And while you wait for your steering to disappear, you'll be greeted with a transmission that shudders, vibrates or won't shift at all.

Wires were broken, and a bulb was out (probably due to shorting). Backup lights did not work, trunk light did not work and trunk latch did not work. Vehicle was only 3,768 miles out of warranty.
