Description of the problem | Going home when vehicle was moving, i noticed brakes were progressively getting worse. Each braking event required 25% more travel then previous brake application. Made it home safely within 3 miles. No brake fluid once i parked vehicle. Drove slow and used the brake very little during the trip. Thankfully, i was not going fast and realized something was not right and was able to mostly cost home. Later that day, the vehicle was towed to ford dealer. After they inspected, they reported to me the master cylinder leaked the brake fluid into the brake booster. Repair quote was for $1500 for new master cylinder and brake booster.*dt*jb |
