Is it normal for a Ford Focus engine to make a knocking sound?

I recently purchased a Ford Focus and I've noticed that the engine makes a knocking sound when I accelerate. Is this something I should be concerned about? What could be causing this issue?

It is not normal for a Ford Focus engine to make a knocking sound. This could be a sign of engine issues, such as worn bearings or loose components. It's important to have your vehicle inspected by a certified mechanic as soon as possible to prevent any potential damage.

Yes, unfortunately I have experienced the same issue with my Ford Focus. After getting it checked out by a mechanic, it was determined that the engine had a malfunctioning part that needed to be replaced. I would recommend taking it to a trusted mechanic to get a proper diagnosis.
