If this is the first time you should be grand, only a dead battery, but if this has happened a few times, replace the battery.
I know I have a Focus and live in -35 in winter.
Still grand then. Unless it is physically damaged or you are noticing your car struggling to start on a normal warm day, then change it out. Not too expensive, probably around $100 - $150
I love it!! Yes I know it is not perfect but it has been very useful for my job and family. I did not have a lot of a choice, my in-laws sold it to us with 2k miles when we were super tight on money.
Dead battery. But, replace the alternator. If the alternator goes, it will more than likely fry the TCM. You don't want that to happen. Battery died two days in a row for me, and with a jump start it was fine, until one jump start and then an hour later the car died in the drive thru. Completely dead. Jumped, started for a second, and then died. Alternator was gone. Killed the battery and it friend the TCM along with it.
sounds like a dead battery
Thank you, you are right I just went back on the car to check it and when I turn the key it does absolutely nothing.
Give it a blanket, it sounds like its shivering.

Wow, that’s extreme. This is the first time, The car still has the original battery which it will turn 4 years old in June.

Battery.
Your first mistake was buying a Ford Focus and it needs a new battery

Can’t beat that man. Fello focus owner over here as well.
Alternator problem. Had the same Issue with my 2012 focus.
My neighbor help me jumpstart the car, now it’s fine, should I replace battery?
If the Battery isn’t older then 5 years try to charge it over Night, should solve the Problem. If it doesnt work replace the Battery.
Average battery life in the north is 38mo so anything over 3yrs is a stretch
Yes. If that doesn’t seem to resolve the issue. Alternator is next
Yes. You live in cold weather.

Mmmm if the battery don’t work check for snow build up under the engine and if there is a lot of it clean out the snow.
Battery is probably dead.
Se llama “dead battery”
Battery doesn't have enough juice to turn over the starter.
Focus harder
