Our 2002 Ford Focus had a major brake job at 32,000 miles.  I paid almost
$400 for the job.   We're not hard on our brakes, do not speed (no more
than 5 MPH over).   My 2003 Ford Ranger was in the shop for squeaking
brakes two times--the problem was fixed and reoccurred 2 months later
both times.  I paid over $200 in repairs both times.  On the 3rd time my
friend, who is a mechanic found broken of pieces of brake pad where the
TRIM off of the pad edges wasn't done correctly at the factory.   He
removed three slivers out of the drum and solved the problem.   The truck
is in the shop at this time getting a new alternator at 46,000 miles.   I
believe Ford is next in line behind GM to go down the drain.  NO MORE
FORD PRODUCTS for us.........Kelvin
