If you look at the description for the General car related discussion it states this

"To discuss anything that is related to cars and automotive technology that doesnt naturally fit into another forum catagory."

Therefore your specific question about a Focus was moved to the Focus section where it should have been put originally.

If every thread was posted in the GD sections what would be the point of the model specific sections plus the thread would have disappeared almost immediately onto page 2 and beyond.
