Model: Focus 1999 (Build Date: Up to 11.2003 ) (Build Code: Up to 3M )

Markets: All

Subject: Water ingress in the passenger footwell through the cowl Panel Grille or pollen filter

This bulletin supersedes TSB 71/1999 dated //1999, which should either be destroyed or clearly marked to show it is no longer valid (e.g. with a line across the page).

Summary

Should a customer express concern about water ingress in the passenger footwell, the probable cause is an inadequate seal between the cowl Panel Grille and the windshield in the area of the pollen filter. To rectify this concern, on vehicles built up to 04.1999 (build code XE) a new cowl Panel Grille should be reworked and an additional cowl Panel Grille sealing strip should be installed. Vehicles built from 05.1999 (build code XL) already have the revised cowl Panel Grille. On these vehicles only the cowl Panel Grille on the passenger side should be removed and an additional cowl Panel Grille sealing strip should be installed.

The relevant sections of the Focus 1999 workshop manual will be updated.

Production Action

In production, the revised cowl Panel Grille has been installed since 19.04.1999 (build code XE), and it is planned to install a cowl Panel Grille without extra seals from 12.2003 (build code 3P).
