 Description of the problemI was slowing down as i approached a red light at an intersection. The vehicle was slowing down fine but when i tried to come to a complete halt the brake pedal suddenly felt soft or loose and easily hit the floor but vehicle did not stop and kept rolling forward slowly. I pumped the brakes but the brake pedal just felt soft and easily hit the floor. I managed to steer to avoid a pedestrian and then jammed transmission into park and this stopped vehicle. Road condition was slightly wet but clear. The vehicle was traveling slowly at the time of the incident. I then shut off and restarted engine. Then i tested the brakes again and they worked fine. Took vehicle to local ford dealership to get checked out. The dealership could not find a specific cause for this brake failure, no sign of brake oil leak. Dealership recommended replacing master brake cylinder. There is a recall for this exact same model, but only for those trucks built in august 2013. My truck was built in kansas city february 2013, so i had to pay for cost of work.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
