But I just need your opinions and experiences. Well I have a May 04 reg xr6t, and brakes needed doing in the front at maybe 45000km and the backs have just been done at 52000km.Now I am wondering, are the brakes covered under the warranty? if so what is actually covered, I am assuming that the pads are not but is the machining and other parts covered in the brakes department?The dealer needed to order some rubber parts from OZ which were "missing" in the fronts. I'm just wondering as I paid 2 very heafty bills for this work to be done! And if it is covered then I will be trying to get my money back!Thank you all in advance Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/33303-help-have-i-been-swindled/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missing parts ?? If the brakes were worked on by FORD last time ask them to cover the missing parts. Did they tell you whet you were paying to replace? Talk to the guys at racebrakes http://www.racebrakes.co.nz/ they will sort out the dodgy factory set up, often just with a decent set of pads. They are really helpful and arent going to try to sell you something you dont need.

I would be going to get my money back. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/33303-help-have-i-been-swindled/#findComment-516301 Share on other sites More sharing options...
