Description of the problem | Hi i am the owner of a 2017 ford edge fwd last week on the 1may 2019 while driving on highway 400 in woodbridge ontario exiting the ramp to langstaff rd i applied the brakes but the brakes failed to stop i applied the emergency brakes and drove about a mile to my home address while the vehicle was parked in the driveway i noticed some oil under neath the car engine the next day i towed the vehicle to the ford dealer in woodbridge and after is was examined by them i was advised that both front brake flex house were broken leaking oil. I was told that the parts were back order and the dealer had the car and the repairs under the warranty while the vehicle was at dealer i was told that i needed back brakes also. I declined the service today the 10 may 2019 i had the rear brakes replaced by my own mechanic and while he was a xemining the brake lines he noticed the rear left side had an air build an air bible in the line, which he stated that the brakes will fail soon because the brake line is rubber i called the dealer and told them about the problem and i was advised that this is not a warranty defect i need to wait till the brake lines burst completely for them to replace it i told them this is a safety issued and was told to bring it in next thursday the the 16 may 2019 for them to look at it i am puzzled by this system that the warranty or the dealer play with people life |
