 Description of the problemAbs brake system. My brake system began to fail in may 2015 and has done it ever since. When i push the brake pedal brakes fade to floor. I have nearly had several accidents due to brake failure. I took it to my local dealer (sackelaris ford in camdenton, mo) and they analyzed it for an outrageous fee and stated the problem was either the master cylinder or the haydraulic control unit on abs. I had the master cylinder replaced with a new mc and it hasn't helped. My brake pedal still fades to floor. I checked on the internet to see if this problem was a 2004 f150 f4 common problem. It is and a shocking pervasive one. Numerous accounts of this problem were posted on the internet. So i asked the dealer if there were any recalls for this and there isn't. I called the ford customer service department and they corroborated there were no recalls. My mechanic stated there was a thecnical service bulletin for this reoccuring problem (tsb reference # 17750, nhtsa reference # 10008234) and ford should fix it up to 100,000 miles. I again contacted the ford customer service department and they at first denied the tsb. On a subsequent call i gave them the tsb number and they stated it did not cover payment for the repair. This is a frightening experience and i am amazed there hasn't been a recall on the abs issue. I will not drive my truck until i can get this repaired. The abs system is supplied by bosch.
