The 2009 Ford Focus features a timing chain that generally doesn't need to be replaced if you maintain the engine properly. However, if the chain does break, you'll have to get it replaced since the car can't operate without it. The cost of a timing chain typically ranges between 50 and 100 dollars. Installing it on your own can help you save money, but if you have a repair shop handle it, you may spend around an additional 100 dollars on average. When ordering a replacement chain online, ensure that you're getting a timing chain and not a cambelt, as some places refer to both timing chains and belts as cam belts. Getting a timing belt instead of a timing chain won't solve the issue.
