2012 Ford Focus Electric Hatchback 4-Door Description

* * * RELISTED BECAUSE SALE FELL THROUGH * * *
This is your chance to get the cheapest Focus Electric in all U.S.A.
Selling my Ford Focus Electric - New Jersey based vehicle. Car is excellent/mint condition all over, apart from one minor issue (see later). The issue is minor, easily fixable and is potentially a way for you to get an EV bargain IF you can live with it. Alternatively you can get it fixed if you have an EV competent Ford dealer near you. But please factor that into whatever you bid or if you make an offer. I'm not expecting retail value for this so go on, make an offer ... but once you own it, this is your call to fix, not mine.
This is the Oxford white with medium light stone interior (tan) heated cloth seats.
Vehicle used as a commuter with 99% of mileage running daily between Bordentown and Philadelphia on the I-295. Although its a 2012 model, I'm the original owner and purchased this brand new from a Ford Dealer in Nov 2013.
It's still coveredunder the Ford Powertrain warranty (which will cover you to Nov 2018 or 60K miles). You can see everything that the Powertrain warranty covers on the Ford website.
If you found this on a search you probably already know what it is about, so I won't get into too many details here, but if you have any questions on the car itself or general EV experience, usage, performance, maintenance etc feel free to ask. I'm one of the few Focus Electric drivers that has used one of these vehicles regularly over this many years for this mileage, I'll be honest for you, unless you live in a certain type of climate and have a specific usage for this vehicle its unlikely that this (or any EV) is suitable for you. Also, I can probably tell you more about the cars benefits/drawbacks/tips than anyone else.
The issue (and please read this before bidding or making an offer):Cabin heater doesn't work. I haven't taken it into Ford, but from what I've read there is a fuse, solenoid or heater element on these that needs to be replaced - it does not rely on heat generated through internal combustion. I don't have either the time to take this in or a competent local Ford dealer that can handle EVs.
Generally, before buying an EV, I would recommendthat you check with your local Ford dealer how many EV's they service regularly (in my view, Ford EV-certification proves absolutely nothing).
Fortunately, the heated seats in the vehicle DO work 100% and they are very hot, so it covers me for now and I simply will not be getting this repaired. If you bid on this please factor that into your price, you will get it cheaper, but if you want the heat, you'll need to take it in. Finally, and just as an FYI ...if you're in a place that you can't live without a cabin heater throughout the year, my recommendation is DON'T buy any current gen EV's (Focus, Leaf, Volt etc).
Will ship to anywhere in US; buyer pays.
Car is paid-off, I have title etc.
