#452 of 613 Door open & warranty by jazvan Mar 25, 2006 (8:06 pm)
Here is a universal fix (not Focus-specific). If you can locate the switch on each door, open each door in turn and manually depress the switch. When you hit the culprit the door open indicator light goes out and of course that is the switch in need of adjustment. I believe the trigger point can be adjusted by screwing the switch body in or out. If this doesn't fix it you have at least eliminated the "easy" fix.   Warranty - I read that 2003 warranty thing in another site. Anyway, it's as clear as can be to me that the 04 is covered but I don't have any evidence in front of me to prove the 03 is covered. I dare say there are 2 really big Focus specific sites and I would do a search there.   Jaz

Replying to: jayguy (Jan 01, 2004 6:03 pm) I decided to try to remove the dents in the rear hatch of my wife's 2001 SE wagon. I removed the inside panel and after tapping on the door to remove the dents a light bulb fell out. Both light units are corroded with one missing the metal end. With the inside panel off I noticed corrosion inside the door around the openings to these lights and also the outer two nuts that holds the plastic strip located over the door latch handle and containing the light units were also corroded! If left unattended I would expect the rust to continue through the door. Any one with corroded lights may want to check this out.

#455 of 613 Headliner Replacement (Molding) by bdyment Apr 23, 2006 (5:58 am)
Well, we had to have the headliner replaced in our new 2006 SES Wagon. There was a crease where there shouldn't have been a crease, almost a tear. The dealer did a good job on installation of the new headliner, but should there not be a rear cross car interior molding where the headliner meets the hatch? I can't remember.   The headliner fabric is simply tucked under the top rear weather striping. Doesn't seem quite finished to me, but maybe it is.

Replying to: magneezo (Aug 29, 2005 5:09 pm) I have a 2003 ZTW - runs great, good mileage. But squeaky brakes. The dealer can't hear the squeak. They have checked out the brakes twice and said nothing wrong. I read somewhere that this was a Chevy problem and they cured it by not using relined brakes. I bought this car in april o5 with only 14000 miles on it so I don't think it had relined brakes. It still stops OK though. Any ideas on how to cure the squeak?

Replying to: jazvan (Apr 23, 2006 9:44 pm) Sorry to ask again, but do you mean you have a molding or not? Thanks in advance Replies to this message: jazvan (Apr 25, 2006 11:27 am)

Replying to: bdyment (Apr 24, 2006 11:29 am) Sorry, I see that can be taken 2 ways. No molding, the liner just slips under the rubber gasket. I know, cuz I noticed a while back there was a gap there. Not sure if it was that way out of the factory or had slipped out. I just slipped it back in. Holding fine so far. I'll probably put a couple spots of "craft" adhesive on if it ever slips out again.   Jaz

Replying to: remowus (Apr 24, 2006 8:05 am) Front or back brakes? With fronts I think there is a dry lube on the pad backing plate that sometimes is not applied or wears off that could cause squeak. Maybe someone more expert can comment on this 'cuz I never replaced front pad on a Focus. I pulled my back drums to take a look at my back brakes and it's no easy job. Car had about 18K on it and there was almost zero wear on the rear shoes. Problem was the parking brake cable needing adjusting which is quite easily performed from the cable lever. Well, that has nothing to do with your squeak accept the rears don't seem to wear very quickly.   Jaz
