How reliable is a 2002 Ford Focus?

I need a car ASAP and can’t afford much, but I still need something that’s going to last for a while. I’m currently eyeing a used 2002 Ford Focus—how reliable are they?

Sometimes you just need a set of wheels to get you from point A to point B—we’ve all been there! Overall, the 2002
Ford Focus
is regarded as a very reliable car.
RepairPal
gives it an above average 4 out of 5, and Edmunds rates it a 4.2 out of 5 for reliability and value. A properly-maintained 2002 Ford Focus should last for around 200,000 to 250,000 miles, so make sure you check the odometer and get the repair records before you buy.
