Description of the problem	2013 ford f-150 recalled by ford in 2016 under recall 16v345000. Vehicle had the defective hitachi master cylinder replaced in may of 2017 by jenkins ford in fort meade florida at no charge. On july 30th 2020 while traveling on an interstate depressed brake pedal, travelled to the floor with minimal braking and brake fluid low level light came on with warning chime. Remained in control to stop vehicle with no accident. Vehicle towed to bartow ford, diagnosed as faulty master cylinder seal allowing complete bypass of brake fluid into the vacuum booster. Ford refused to pay for this repair $1282 claiming they had fixed this problem in 2017. Upon investigation confirmed that the defective hitachi master cylinder was replaced with another identical defective hitachi master cylinder. It makes no sense to try to correct a defect with the identical defective part when the braking of a 6000 pound vehicle is at stake! I just saw another recall just out for 2015 thru 2018 f150 with the same poorly designed single seal master cylinder. How many other complaints have there been for the replacement master cylinder also failing?
