Description of the problem	I am writing to complain about the failure of the vacuum pump on our 2012 ford f150 with ecoboost. Once the vehicle had been driven around 33,000 miles, we began to notice some issues with the brakes immediately following startup: the brake pedal was difficult to press and unless pumped several times before moving, the brakes would not fully engage. This in other words, the vehicle could not be brought to a complete stop in a normal or safe amount of distance. We informed the technicians at our local ford dealer of this issue while having the annual inspection completed. Ultimately, they found the vacuum pump to be completely inoperable and it had to be replaced. Fortunately, no accident occurred before we had this part replaced, but the potential was significant. Ford should take some action to prevent any possible crashes that may happen as a result of the early malfunction of this component.
