The light indicating a door is not properly closed came on and will not go out despite all doors and trunk being checked. Safety lock does not engage when driving. I believe this is similar to the focus recalls re the side doors in later years.

The warning light comes on and stays on (in every season of the year) when the weather…

With no accident, trauma or unusual event, my air bag warning light began to come on and off intermittently. After about a week, it stayed on. I took it to a ford dealership. For $119.16, they diagnosed it as codes b1868 - airbag lamp failure and b2232 airbag circuit open loop #2 front driver's seat. It would cost $1,100 to replace the module.

The ignition key would not turn. The repair cost $305 and ford will not cover the expense under the extracare extended warranty. My research indicates that this is a problem that has been going on since 2000. I had a 2003 ford focus and i experienced the same exact problem. I assumed when i purchased my 2007 and 2010 ford focus that this problem had been addressed by ford. I looked up the 2003 ford focus on your…
