Leaking Brake Fluid
#1
Hey guys.. recently my emergency brake light had been coming on, checked it out and I was low on brake fluid. I topped it up and a couple weeks or so and the light comes on and I'm back down to the "min" mark on the reservoir.

I went to my dealership and he asked to look under my drivers floor mat. He said that some Focus' have leaked brake fluid and it gets inside the car by the clutch pedal.. I had never heard of this, but I had just recently removed my carpet floor mats to put my rubber ones in and there was a wet-looking mark by the top of the mat that could have been brake fluid.

Anyway, I've got extended warranty coverage until this summer, and he said there is a $100 deductible charge. I've never had any extended warranty work done, so I'm guessing this is normal?

Has this happened to anyone else?
