The method to add windshield washer fluid to a Focus: Open the engine hood of the Focus, locate the windshield washer fluid filler port at the front left of the engine compartment, open the filler cap, and add the windshield washer fluid. In addition to its cleaning function, windshield washer fluid also has a lubricating effect. The Ford Focus is an A-segment family sedan with body dimensions of 4647mm in length, 1810mm in width, and 1468mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2648mm. In terms of appearance, the Focus adopts a new family design, featuring sharp-looking LED headlights with striking L-shaped daytime running lights. It is equipped with dual-tone 18-inch wheels, a sporty bumper, and a rear spoiler, giving it a vibrant and youthful appeal with a strong sense of sportiness.
I usually add windshield washer fluid to my Focus by myself, and I find it quite simple. After opening the car's hood, you can see a plastic tank with a blue cap on the right or left side, marked with a windshield icon. The cap twists off easily, and you can pour the washer fluid directly in, but don't overfill—stop when the liquid reaches the maximum level line. Press the cap tightly when closing to prevent leaks. I recommend using professional windshield washer fluid and avoiding mixing it with tap water, as it can freeze in winter, clogging the pipes, or grow algae in summer, affecting cleaning. Test the washer spray to ensure it works properly; if it doesn't clean well, check if the nozzle is clogged. Get into the habit of checking the fluid level monthly to avoid the danger of unclear visibility while driving. It only takes about five minutes to refill, saving you the hassle of visiting a repair shop.
