get a mechanic to look at it

Push down on each corner of the car forcefully with your hands. The corners should go down and come back up without excessive bouncing at the top of travel. You should also hear no bumping noises that would indicat the broken strut mounts.

How much does it cost to replace struts and shocks on a ford focus?

If its a 2003 focus then I know they had a recall on them or something. Mine were free. But I do think I remember I think it had to be below 100k miles. Mine broke and luckly I went to the dealer and the told me about how they were free. If I would have went anywhere else they would have been about 120 something a piece. So I would call your local dealer and ask them!! Wouldnt hurt

How do I stop a thormostat Coolant Leak in a Ford Focus?

I don't know where the thermostat is physically located on a Focus specifically, but if it is underneath the water neck on top of the intake manifold it may be a poor sealant & gasket used when the water neck was mounted/installed. Perhaps you may want to refer to a Chilton's guide for the Ford Focus to replace the thermostat gasket and sealant?


How do you know if your front shocks are gone on your 1995 Intrepid and how do you replace them?

It has Struts and not shocks. If the car is bouncing or floating whenever you hit a dip in the road, or seems to handle poorly, these are signs of worn struts. A leak in one of the struts is also a sign of a bad strut. Mileage is another factor. Struts today will last a long time, but if the car has over 100,000 miles, then more than likely the struts need replacing. As to replacing them, unless you have the proper tools and knowledge, take it to a pro. Serious injury can occur when replacing struts, if you don't know what you are doing.
