What owners wrote
Was driving in good weather conditions and 2007 ford focus began to veer to the left and right out of control - I had no control over the steering or brakes is was as if the car went on auto pilot and started driving itself. After about twenty seconds of rocking left and right in the road the car made a sharp right and left the highway hit and flipped twice with my daughter and myself inside - fortunately we are both still alive the 2007 ford focus is totaled.
2007 ford focus st excessive tire wear. At 71,000 miles the vehicle is due for the fourth set of tires. Goodyear eagle gt p205/50-16 tires have twice lasted less than 25,000 miles while the tires are warrantied for 50,000 miles. Alignment and balance are good and maintained, no 'unusual' wear patterns. Many owners of this vehicle have reported similar issues.
