Does it cost more to repair Ford Focus electric vehicle systems?

The answer is, it depends. Certain high voltage parts are only available as components in larger units. We do offer promotional financing through the Firestone credit card.* (*Subject to credit approval.)

How do I know when to get new brakes on my Ford Focus?

A brake inspection is your smartest first step. Investing in manufacturer suggested maintenance intervals for Ford Focus brakes is another good idea. That said, front brake pad wear can be significantly reduced in electric vehicles because of regenerative braking.

What do I do if my Ford Focus dashboard warning light is on?

There are so many reasons the Focus dashboard warning light can illuminate. Stop by Firestone Complete Auto Care for an electric vehicle diagnostic to learn more. You may also have a warning light on the dash regarding your high voltage system.

Is it normal for my Focus to leak water?

It is common for electric cars to have some water accumulation underneath them after using the air conditioning system for a bit of time. Electric car A/C systems use receiver dryer assemblies to help the refrigerant stay clean, and this process can create condensation that drains under the vehicle on warm days. Noticing a bit of water under your Focus shouldn’t be a cause for concern, but significant amounts of water or any coolant leaks could indicate an issue with your cooling system.

Local EV Service for 2013 Ford Focus

Have you noticed your Ford Focus behaving differently? Maybe you've felt less "pep" in its acceleration, or it feels like it is taking forever to go from 0 to 60MPH. If so, our technicians can run through a complimentary* electric/hybrid vehicle check to get a deeper understanding. There could be an issue with the high voltage cooling system in your Focus -- if the high voltage battery is running too hot, it will reduce your battery's performance. Then again, it could be that your Focus has Diagnostic Trouble Codes stored in one of its electric modules. Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care location is equipped to offer low voltage and conventional services for all electric cars, including your 2013 Ford Focus.

Select Firestone Complete Auto Care locations also have high voltage/advanced services for electric cars like Ford Focuss. A high voltage service is anything that requires removing the Focus's high voltage, safety/service disconnect switch/plug, servicing the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, or any high voltage electric machines/motors or high voltage cables, etc. Call ahead before making an appointment to confirm the high voltage services at your closest location.

Some of these high voltage electric vehicle services might include:

Electric vehicle diagnostic: A diagnostic is the next step we take after noting the symptoms your Ford Focus is showcasing. This step will help us get to the bottom of the real problem. With the information gathered, your expert technician can further investigate any electric vehicle problems and decide if more analysis is required to complete the fix. No repairs are performed without your consent.

High voltage battery cooling inspection: The technician will closely examine the high voltage battery's filter and, if needed, clean the battery's ducts. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)

High voltage cable inspection: The outer cable jackets and connectors on your 2013 Focus will be inspected and tested to ensure high voltage is NOT transferring to the chassis. Your technician will notify you if the cable is in need of replacement.

Isolation test: During this test, the technician will use a special tool to check for any high voltage components that are "leaking" electric energy to the chassis.

Remove and replace high voltage battery: Is your Ford Focus's high voltage battery a goner? Electric vehicle batteries can sometimes fail sooner than expected in hotter climates or if you often use Level 3 fast-charging stations, as these stations can heat up the battery more. Let us replace it for you.

Health check for the power electronic systems: We'll inspect the power inverter, electric drive machine(s)/motor(s), and/or regenerative braking in your Ford Focus.
