SOA said the same as dealer, they wouldn't cover it because recall was completed. There was a 1yr/unlimited mileage warranty from the time of the recall completed that the agent told me. So I'm outside of the coverage window and nothing he can do. He documented the case, and I filed a complaint with NHTSA where I see other people complaining about the brake issue post recall as well, maybe if enough people file complaints another recall can happen. But for now I think i'll look through this thread to see if I can fix myself or tow the car to a 3rd party shop to get it fixed. Since the 1st brake recall my LGT has been a summer only car and averages ~5k miles a year. So I really think the corrosion was already started before the recall.

My 08' LGT with 125k miles brake line just failed at the rear clip like previous posts pictures. Saw the brake light come on while driving, I tapped the brakes lightly and checked if ebrake was up a few times and the light went away for a bit before it finally stayed on while driving. I thought maybe it was a sensor since light taps and braking seemed fine. I guess when I was tapping and testing the brakes over and over, I was just pumping all the fluid out of the back and could barely stop when I actually had to use the brakes to come to a complete stop. I had both brake recalls done by the dealer before. Once in 2013 @ ~89k miles and the other in 2014 @ ~97k miles. I didn't tow the car to the dealer, but called them up and they said it wont be covered and was told contact SOA customer service to see if there is anything they will do. Im going to file with complaint with NHTSA and call SOA Monday.

I think the service adviser told me they are going through the glove box to do the replacement. But not sure. Ill try to get more info when I go in tomorrow.

I dropped my 05' wagon off today, they told me about new procedure w/o pulling the dash. hopefully that works fine. I rather them not mess with my cubby gauges in my 08' sedan that Ill bring in tomorrow morning for the recall. Downside would be that Ill still have dash rattle on both cars I guess.

Lets hope so, both of my LGT's have dash rattle. Id pay for the clips too, but maybe they would be breaking some anyways when removing the dash.

Does the entire front dash come off for this repair?

Focus RS!

Wagon has got worse with misfires. Car is very rough at idle, but smooths out as soon as I am on the gas. I did some logging with Tactrix cable and saw at idle cyl 2 misfire/roughness counts just kept going up, all other cyl at 0. But as soon as I hold revs at about 1500rpms or higher 0 misfires even on cyl 2. The car has started making ticking/rattling sound from the engine at idle as well, but goes away with the revs like misfires. Any idea what it could be? i tried swapping injectors with a used set of injectors from STI also put in new coil pack but nothing fixed it. also replaced both oil control valves, 1 was bad for sure. Could it be burnt valve? or intake manifold O ring going to cyl 2?

I wonder if somehow I can get this to work the Full Race EFR 7163 Twin scroll kit.

At Alpine Valley Ski Resort this past Saturday. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v97/Bbc84/Legacy%20GT/IMG_20141122_150006_zps6c60ad7d.jpg

I replaced both OCV and my misfires went away. used tatrix cable and watched the 2 vales related to OCV metric on each bank. Noticed 1 bank was not keeping up or getting stuck, compare to the other. I just replace both at same time.

I made 2 loads, last load was 25bags. Didnt reach the bumpstops yet, but rear was nicely tucked

Anyone from here, sounds like a modded LGT rolls by in the beginning of the clip from Tampa. [ame=http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=d76_1381621206]LiveLeak.com - Homeless Theatre[/ame]

Just had a friend help me with compression test on my 05 LGT w/131k miles. #'s seem very low but close to each other though. 119 psi on driver side cylinders 121 psi on passenger side cylinders. Every once in a while I get check engine light and cruise light on. for Cyl 2 and 4 Misfires. Should I try Intake manifold gaskets next? I already swapped coil packs around and still same cylinders having issues. My next things were either swap injectors or the o rings on the intake manifold.
