The freeze plugs on the 2008 Ford Focus can be found at the bottom of the engine block near the cylinder head. Repairing these components can be quite expensive, and it may be necessary to remove the entire engine to access them. Some of the freeze plugs are located towards the front and sides of the car, but removing them still requires significant effort, sometimes even cutting down the front of the engine. The cost of replacement plugs can range from $1000 to $1500 depending on the extent of the repair work needed. Signs that a freeze plug may be failing include a milky discoloration on the oil cap, overheating, white exhaust smoke, and coolant leakage. These thin metal plugs are prone to rusting over time, eventually leading to leaks.
