Is the Ford Focus a Reliable Car Option?

I'm considering buying a used Ford Focus, but I've heard mixed reviews about its reliability. Can anyone speak from personal experience and provide some insight?

I've owned a Ford Focus for 5 years and it's been the most reliable car I've ever had. It's still going strong with minimal maintenance.

I've had nothing but problems with my Ford Focus. I would not recommend it.

I've worked on Ford cars for years and in my experience, the Focus is a solid and reliable choice.
