| Description of the problem | On june 15, 2018 i had a tone alert and message on the dash of my 2015 f150 appear while the truck was in motion indicating a "low brake fluid" warning. I applied the brake pedal and it appeared to be normal. I traveled a short distance to a parking lot and stopped. I returned after 20 minutes and when i stepped on the brake to start the truck the brake pedal went all the way to the firewall. I raised the hood and saw about 1/8 inch of fluid in the reservoir. I called aaa having the vehicle towed to tri-lakes ford in branson missouri. The diagnosis was master cylinder and brake booster failure. |
