| Description of the problem | I drive a 2004 ford f-150 super crew. On a 50 degree clear dry morning i left the house and drove 100 yds to stop sign and stopped. Turned left drove 100 yard to stop light controlled intersection. Stepped on brake pedal. It went to the floor and engine rpm increased without input from me (my foot was stomping on the brake pedal). Pulled the gear selector to low, pumped brake pedal repeatedly, made a hard right turn to avoid entering the intersection and engaged the emergency brake to stop the truck. I shut it off for a few moments in order to calm down. Upon restarting, the brakes seemed to work normally. The truck is now at the dealer for investigation of the problem. *jb |
