We had an EcoBoost Titanium and had no problems with it. The main thing, as I'm sure you are aware having had a Focus, is that they need to be driven slightly different to regular auto's and CVT's. They don't respond well to heavy, sudden throttle applications from stand still and generally resent on-off-on type throttle usually associated with stop start city driving.
Can only with everything said earlier. No trouble with ours after 4 years and lots of stop start city driving. As long as you drive it according to the advice above it is fine.
