Why does my Ford Focus engine make a strange noise after long trips?

I have a 2018 Ford Focus and I've noticed that after long trips, my engine makes a strange noise when I start it up again. The noise goes away after a few minutes of driving. Is this something I should be concerned about?

This could potentially be a sign of an issue with your engine. It's always best to err on the side of caution and have a mechanic take a look at it just to be safe.

I've had the same issue with my Ford Focus and it turned out to be a loose belt in the engine. It's an easy fix, just take it to your nearest dealership or mechanic.

I would suggest getting your oil checked. It could be a buildup of debris causing the noise. Regular oil changes can help prevent this issue.
