| Description of the problem | While moving at speed below 10 mph, but using the brake at times, my "low brake fluid" warning indicator came on after driving only 200 yards. Even after filling the brake fluid container, it again came on after only about 500 yards. I carefully took the truck to my local ford dealer who found that the master cylinder was leaking fluid into the brake booster. This is identical to the ford recall #16s24. However ford says that my vin is not among the recall list, but obviously the recall should be extended to include my vehicle that exhibits the identical recall that ford describes. |
