Very informative thread - wife’s 155ps ST line X FE had its first service yesterday, car is on 16,335 miles and rear discs/pads need replacing due to heavily scored discs. They do feel heavily grooved when you run your fingers over them. The front discs are only 20% worn. Ford will call us next Tuesday after they’ve liaised Ford Technical.

Sounds like mine too. Luckily I complained at 3k and was fobbed off by the dealership. I have copies of the emails so sent them to Ford technical and they relented.

My new rear discs are in loads better condition than previous ones , front pads done pretty much what they were before noise wise. I will just leave the radio on and ignore them when pulling up.

Heard back from Ford about the Sssccchh noise when stopping, apparently the Ford Puma Specialists say there is nothing else that can be done. Not sure why they didn't replace the front discs and pads under wrty like they did the rears which might have resolved the issue since initially after the pads were done the brakes were quiet. I have been asked to make a recording although not sure a phone will be able to pick it up but willing to give it a go.
Although i have had a few issues Ford themselves have been pretty good with goodwill vouchers etc but if they cannot solve this sort of issue i doubt the puma will be getting replaced with another unfortunately. Its not unbearable just annoying when coming to a stop and the radio is off i can hear it, although i am quite good at detecting noises.

Update. They are Ford Brakes. I saw the Fomoco signature. Oh well they seem to be working just fine.

155X mine have been noisy for a week or so now after 4500, phoned local Ford garage who are usually 💩! Told book it in end of January! I said my rear discs are all scored and the handbrake is inadequate now! Sport end of Jan is best we can do! I’ve had loads of issues with my Puma and WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER FORD AFTER THIS INES SOLD!!!
