| Description of the problem | Ford f-150 fx4 140,000. 0 miles. Brake light has been on for several years starting around 2010 with 76,000. 0 miles. The brakes were replaced and flushed multiple times since the problem started. Replaced brake cable e-brake switch etc... Everything points to the cluster and there are multiple websites the verify the same exact problem with the brake light beginning from 2004-2010. In some states this is an indpectable item adding additional and mandatory repairs to be made. The cluster repair part cost anywhere from $400. 00-$600. 00 and with labor could run well over $1000. 00 pending on the model of the f-150. My bottom line is that this issue has gone without a recall from ford or the nhtsa. |
