| Description of the problem | Master cylinder leaking into brake booster. Only warning is low brake fluid light. Known issue on 13, 14 ecoboost models. Just driving down the interstate and low brake fluid level warning came on . Pulled over and put more fluid in master cylinder. By the time we got to the end of parking lot needed fluid again. Took to ford dealer where they said needed new master cylinder and brake booster replaced. Parts and labor over $900. This should not be a normal failure for a truck that has less than 62000 miles on it. Thankfully we did not have a more catastrophic situation. |
