 Description of the problemBrake fluid level sensor came on while driving on interstate at highway speeds. No brakes after that point. Coasted off the highway, checked fluid level, empty. Added 20 oz to max fill level, leaked out inside of 6 minutes. Towed to dealership, replaced brake master cylinder under ford recall 16s24. Not sure booster was replaced. Issue is i check my fluid level every week before getting on the highway, i knew there was a recall issued march 2017, but with my fluid level standing full, didn't think it was an issue, i had plans to do the recall in oct. This is not a slow leak, this is a full on seal failure with draining of the reservoir inside 6 minutes with the truck parked. When that light comes on, you are done with brakes. I just wanted you to know this is a sudden and total loss of fluid and not just a "leak". And there are no rear brakes, you don't just loose the front brakes, you have zero brakes. Didn't have to apply the emergency brake, was able to coast to a stop in the parking lot of a gas station.

    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.
