Product Details

PowerStop Front OE Stock Replacement Caliper L5068 is part of the Autospecialty OE Replacement Brake Calipers line, which focuses on stock-style brake service parts for everyday repair work. This front left caliper is remanufactured to bolt directly in place of the original unit on 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011 Ford Focus models, making it a practical choice for restoring proper hydraulic braking function without changing the factory brake layout.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Repair Uses

• Leaking brake fluid from a worn caliper piston seal
• Uneven front brake pad wear on the driver-side front wheel
• Sticking or dragging front left brake caliper operation
• Corrosion or damage to the original caliper body or bracket
• Brake pedal feel issues caused by caliper wear or internal leakage

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle is a 2008-2011 Ford Focus with front left caliper application before installation. Inspect brake pads, rotors, and brake hoses during service, and bleed the hydraulic system after caliper replacement. Because mounting hardware is not listed as included, confirm whether existing fasteners can be reused or whether additional service parts are needed for the repair.

Quality Assurance

PowerStop remanufactures the caliper and bracket in its Chicago, IL facility and pressure tests each unit to check piston movement and help prevent leaks. The use of new seals, slide pins where applicable, dust boots, bleeder screws, stainless steel pad abutment clips, and high-temperature EPDM rubber supports consistent OE-style service quality for the Ford Focus brake system.
