I have a 2013 Ford Focus and this exact thing was happening to me!! Through trial and error and replacing everything little I could, it all came down to the throttle body. Replaced it for $200 and my car is 100% back to normal!! Very common problem with these cars!

Although an old post here's my two pence worth! Low coolant level or car thinking it's low is a common cause in petrol models. Engine fears overheating so rather than stopping dead on the road it halves combustion of fuel via the spark plugs. Therefore reducing power drastically but not fully so you can pull over. Oily plugs might confirm this, especially if a whiff of fuel from exhaust noted only when it plays up. Earth straps and smaller earth wires also very good candidate so just undue them, clean them and the area they fasten too, very well with sandpaper. Believe it or not you can also slap the dash over Speedo. No joke, it's well know that soldered contacts in circuit board lose conductivity and dry joint, as they say. Good look and take care.....

My 2013 focus has power loss that starts out intermittent but it's only happening when it rains. I'll drive fine for a bit then it will happen and after about 10 min it clears itself or if I stop it will be gone. No check engine light either.

Great video there . Please my 2004 Ford focus usually dies out and loose power when I am driving for a long distance. When I switch it off it will start right away and everything will run fine for about 5 minutes and the scenario will repeat itself. I have replaced the fuel pump assembly, fuel filter and plugs but no changes . Please I need advice from experienced mechanics and ford owners. It has about 160.000kms on it. Thanks

@@mototime8975 Yeah true that, they want you to do this and that and try this first and later to see if there any changes while your vehicle is suffering and for me is just a waste of time. I mean, what's their problem anyway, they gonna get paid by Ford anyway because it's a faulty transmission by the manufacturer. As for the spark plugs, forget every 100k, for Ford is every 60k or less. And watch videos in how to clean your sensors and throttle body cause the dealers are so dependent of their machine for codes that they don't care doing manually. Overall, save up some money and trade in your vehicle for any Honda, Toyota, Mazda and KIA. Never buy any GM and Ford cars, they are crap. Those makes don't have the fancy stuff that Ford puts on their vehicles but they are quality. Cheers
