Can someone help me? Everytime I drive my focus and say I go over like a little crack in the road the car sounds like there is somethin loose or shacking. Its coming from the front what  could it be?

If it happens only when your going slow and its more of a clunking sound I would guess the sway bar end links.

Other possibilities are strut ;upper mount and inner or outer half shaft bearings.

I'd be prone to second the swaybar endlinks.
their fairly inexpensive and easy to replace yourself. parts stores should be able to et them

Before you run out & buy them, I'd have a mechanic ck it out. At Midas, Tuffy, etc, there wouldn't a charge for them to take a look at it.

You're welcome. Hope it doesn't cost too much to repair.
