I'm beyond frustrated this is my second focus (first one was bought back for a faulty tranny).
This is the kind of thing the so-called lemon laws in the US were created for - unfortunately the only thing we have here anywhere close is CAMVAP.
My advice is to document the hell out of everything ... if you haven't already, start writing letters to Ford Canada (make sure to reference US-style Lemon Laws and CAMVAP, - tell them in no uncertain terms what you want - if it was the dealer who helped you get a replacement car in the first place, go back to them and get them to help again.
Good luck.
Thank you for your advice that's exactly what I'm doing
Wish me luck
