I have had only two problems with my 2006 Ford Focus. First we have had to change the ignition switch twice due to the key being stick in lock would restart but would not come out. Second the inner door on the defrost sticks when on full defrost or full air conditioning and the cables brake keeping the driver from using the air conditioner or defrost at this point it is stuck on air.

The manufacturer was contacted, but no assistance was provided because the warranty expired. The failure and current mileages were 32000.
My key got stuck in the ignition of my 2006 Ford Focus station wagon and would not come out. When I took it to the repair shop I found out that the ignition switch and brake/shift interlock had both failed. The service manager said he has seen this problem often in Ford Focus cars. I had both parts replaced, but I feel that this is not part of normal wear and tear of my vehicle, which is not quite three years old yet. The parts are working fine now that they have been replaced though.
I have a 2006 Ford Focus and the key keeps getting stuck inside of the ignition without any warning. It will stay stuck for a few weeks and then one day it will just come out.
