The 2011 Ford Focus typically doesn't have significant issues with door locks. If you experience difficulty locking the doors, start by inspecting the battery in the key fob. A depleted battery can prevent communication with the car, causing lock and unlock functionality to fail. If pressing the button inside the vehicle doesn't lock the doors, it may indicate an issue with the door actuator, which could prevent proper engagement and latching. Less common issues could involve the body control module malfunctioning.
The problem with the door locks on the 2011 Ford Focus, whether they won't unlock or won't lock, appears to be widespread. Sadly, getting it fixed by dealers can cost anywhere from $450 to $1,300.
