Description of the problem	The 2013 ford f-150 will intermittently ride with the brakes engaged. When letting off the gas pedal it will quickly come to a stop (both on the highway and urban roads). Brake pads have been replaced twice (@ 55,000 miles) and i have noticed a considerable drop in the calculated miles per gallon since observing the issue. I took it to the dealer and they said that it was working properly. They did not hook it up to electronically to perform an advance diagnosis. They instructed me to bring it back when it acts up again. The problem is that it happens intermittently. The only way i could get the vehicle to "disengage the brakes" while driving is to come to complete stop, engage 4wd, drive a few hundred feet, then place the truck back into 2wd. This would normally reset the braking. Appears to happen in colder temperatures. Additionally, the brake pedal occasionally (every six months) will have a grinding pulsating vibration lasting several minutes. The brakes did not go out but it feels as if metal on metal is grinding which creates an unusual and alarming circumstance.
