Description of the problem	1st occurrence i was driving in town, moderate traffic and i depressed the brake pedal and it was rock solid and i could barely slow the vehicle with both feet pressing as hard as i could and the brake warning lights came on. I turned the vehicle off then when i restarted several minutes later, the issue went away. A couple of days later, i received the brake booster recall notice and took the vehicle in for repair at the local dealer. A couple of weeks after the booster recall repair i had the same issue on a rural road nearly causing an accident. I took the truck to the dealer immediately with all of the warning light illuminated and issue still occurring. The ford dealer said it needed the vacuum pump replaced so i told them to go ahead, they charged approximately $360 for the repair. Yesterday, after turning off of a rural road to a more developed shopping area, i lost braking function with the same symptoms as previously described at a traffic light and had to use the parking brake to decelerate. I again parked the vehicle, turned off the ignition and after about 30 minutes, the brakes were working again. I have made an appointment with the dealer to have this diagnosed again in 2 days. Thank goodness my this hasn't occurred while towing my boat. The issue has occurred in both city and highway driving and always while the vehicle is in motion. Only once did the brake warning lights come on before loss of braking. The issue did not occur while turning.
