Why is my Ford Focus having trouble starting?

I have a 2015 Ford Focus with about 50,000 miles on it and lately I've noticed that it's been having trouble starting. It takes a few tries before it actually starts up, and sometimes it makes a weird noise. Any ideas on what could be causing this issue?

One potential reason for this could be a faulty starter motor. If the starter motor is not functioning properly, it may struggle to start the engine. You may also want to check the battery to ensure it has enough charge to start the car.

It could also be an issue with the fuel system, such as a clogged fuel filter or a problem with the fuel pump. If the engine is not getting enough fuel, it may have difficulty starting.

Another possibility is a faulty ignition switch. If the switch is not connecting properly, it may prevent the car from starting. You may want to have it checked by a mechanic to determine if this is the issue.
