Tl*the contact owns a 2008 ford focus. The vehicle was not equipped with a spare tire, jack, and/or lug wrench at the time of purchase. The dealer stated that the vehicles do not come with spare tires, jacks or lug wrenches. The dealer attempted to locate a jack, spare tire, and wrench, but the manufacturer did not design a spare tire or jack for the two door ford focus. There had been no failure to date. The current mileage was 104. Updated 07/07/08. Updated
Tire pressure monitoring system failed to warn of low pressure in right rear tire causing the tire to fail, resulting in inability to control the vehicle. The auto has no spare, only an inflation system, which did not function properly.
