| Description of the problem | I parked my vehicle at camping world. There was no indication that there was any problem with the brakes. I came out about one half hour later and got into my vehicle. I started the engine, put my foot on the brake pedal, put the gearshift in reverse and when i release the parking brake a warning came up on the dash that said "low brake fluid". The vehicle had just started moving in reverse. I stepped down on the service brake pedal in it went all the way to the floor, there was no braking action at all. I hade to use the parking brake to stop. This failure happened with no warning and was a total service brake failure. I found no leaks at the wheels or anywhere under the vehicle. My next stop was to pickup my 26 foot travel trailer to get ready for vacation. Ford emergency service had my vehicle towed to ron dupratt ford in dixon california for warranty repairs. I believe the problem involves the master cylinder/brake booster. |
