| Description of the problem | After taking a 100 mile trip truck was parked for 24 hours. As i started vehicle information screen showed a low brake fluid level and a brake warning light on. After exploring the master cylinder was extremely. After examining all brake lines and the ground for leaking fluid ther was none/wet spots any where. I went to a care store with a different vehicle i added 12 fluid ounces of dot 4 brake fluid. After testing the brakes depressing the brake pedal 4 or 5 times the pedal stayed very soft and depessed all the way to the floor. Once again the master cylinder was empty of fluid wit absolutely no oil visible on the truck or on ground . Had vehicle towed to a repair facility. I was told by the mechanic that master cylinder fail and all fluid accumulated in the booster pump. I am aware the ford has recalled 2013/2014 ff-150 with the 3. 5 engine for the same problem.. |
