Why is my Ford Focus Engine Making a Loud Noise?

I recently purchased a Ford Focus and after a few hundred miles of driving, I noticed that the engine started making a loud noise. It sounds like a grinding or rattling noise and it seems to be getting worse. What could be causing this and what should I do?

It could be a number of things causing the noise such as a loose belt, worn out bearings, or even an issue with the engine itself. I would recommend taking your car to a trusted mechanic to get it checked out before the problem gets worse.

I had the same issue with my Ford Focus and it ended up being a faulty exhaust pipe. It was an easy fix and didn't cost me much, so hopefully it's something simple like that for you too.
