Description of the problem	The below problem has repeated itself more than 20 times since the first incident. When parked overnight or over a long period of time, upon starting and operating the truck - either reverse or drive - the brakes fail to engage the first one or two times. Had to either hit the brakes very hard or i had to revert the truck to p(parking) position. This just about works to bring the truck to a halt, but even this failed a couple of times when d(driving forward). Thankfully, no one was around for 10 meters. This has led me to only starting the vehicle when there is no person/object either in front or the rear. It is high-risk each time given the damage the truck can do if it collides into something. It is not readily reproducible as it works fine thereafter and hence could not prove it exists to ford technicians. Reported it first to ford along with an e-brake issue on 02/12/2015. They replaced the e-brake but brushed off this issue saying it could be rust and it's normal on vehicles parked for long. However the frequency has increased of late and i see quite a few ford owners having the same issue on ford forums. The possible issues could be the vacuum pump failing, but ford technicians claim to have never heard of this problem. Really at a loss and hope ford sends out a bulletin to fix this asap. This is not a joke. It's life threatening and could cause real damage very soon.
