Tailgate won't say up! by kalbo607

I guess the two tail gate arms have given out, has any one else had this problem if so what is the fix? Hard to take stuff in and out of the car, with the tailgate falling on my head.
 
Thanks!

these hydrulic struts do have a lifespan. They should be something you can fix your self if you get the parts.

Not only has the wagon production stopped, the focus as we know it will completely stop production at the end of the 07 model year this summer. THe 2008 Focus is a sedan-only redesign bread & butter car. No hatch, no wagon, no 2.3. INterestingly you can buy the real new generation Focus in Mexico.

I would have that looked at while still under warrenty. You are about at the threshold where the dealer will do something about it.
 
Normal is more like a quart every 5,000 miles or more.
 
I change every 5,000 miles (on a Sienna) and can't tell that any oil has been consumed between changes.

I could never detect any oil useage at all between 5,000 mile oil changes on my Duratec that now has 30K. I'd say a quart every 1,000 miles is not normal for these engines.

I recently purchased a 2005 ZXW SES, and have been considering cargo cover. If anyone has one, how happy are you with it? Is it easy to use, moount / dismount. Any problems / concerns?
 
Thanks!

my experience is like yours. my focus has about 30k on it, also. oil changed about 4500 miles ago, it still reads full.
