 Description of the problemI was driving my 2013 ford f-150 down the highway at highway speed when i got an audible and visual warning on my dashboard telling me that my brake fluid was low. I cleared the message and noticed that a smaller red "brake indicator" light remained lit in the instrument panel. I tapped the brakes to make sure they were working. They were working. I immediately slowed down and proceeded rather cautiously exiting the highway in route to my local ford dealership, which was not more than 1 mile from the end of the exit ramp. As i proceeded to the dealership i tested the brakes multiple times. Once i arrived at the dealership i parked the f-150 in a parkign spot. After checking in, the technician asked me to pull my truck into the service bay so that he could have a look at it. When i returned to the f-150 i cautiously backed out of the parking spot. As i began to brake so that i could shift the f-150 into drive, the brakes failed. The brake pedal went completely to the floor and there were no brakes. I quickly applied the emergency brake and avoided, by just inches, craching into the vehicles behind me. I put the vehicle in park and asked my teenage son to get the technician. The technician parked the f-150 back in a parking spot and i left it there for repairs.
