    Brake pad sevice life question

    So it appears that about 45,000 would be the limit. I put new rotors and pads on and it's stopping fine now. Nice firm pedal.

    Brake pad sevice life question

    I have a 2006 LS I bought used with 17,450 miles on it. It now has 45,000 miles and I'm replacing all the brake pads. I do combined city and highway driving and was wondering what the typical brake pad life is for the LS. I have no idea what the previous owners driving situation was. Just...

    Unusual breakage

    The only thing I can think of is maybe a chunk of snow or ice hit it. I don't really drive it that much.

    Unusual breakage

    The only thing that gave it away was a line in the snow in my driveway. I thought that was odd and took it to the dealer and ran it up on the lift. It very easily could have turned into a much more expensive repair. The black shield that broke is no longer available(obsolete) so we used the old...

    New Ford Taurus! WOW!

    Don't get a Fusion with a 1.6 Ecoboost. They're going up in flames. Ford has a stop sales on them until they figure out what's wrong. The dealer here is calling new owners not to even drive it to the dealership, they'll come and tow it for them1

    Emergency Brake Switch

    Mine broke last year. I got the replacement cup holder section from the dealer for $80 and they popped the old one out and replaced it. The stud bosses on the old one had broken.

    Thanks extended warranty!

    I talked to the service manager and they did not replace the plugs. So if I have another problem, I guess the extended warranty will have to deal with it.

    Thanks extended warranty!

    Joe, I'll ask them about the plug change when I go back for the warranty paper work. I've got a long term relationship with the dealer and I believe they did it the right way.

    Thanks extended warranty!

    The car has only 34,500 miles on it, so plugs might not be an issue. I asked about the rest of the COP's being replaced and the service manager said Ford makes them jump through hoops to do them all. They did the stress test and only found the 2 bad ones. If the others go I'll just let the...

    Thanks extended warranty!

    My 06 was starting to idle a little funny. I took it into the dealer and lo and behold 2 COP were going bad. They replaced them both and with my vanishing deductible, my cost was $0
