 Description of the problem2. 5 month old truck with approximately 7k miles driven. I was rolling down a hill about 10mph and tried to stop to talk with a neighbor. The pedal travel didn't feel normal and i rolled about 5 feet past my neighbor. After coming to a stop the pedal slowly sunk to the floor. I shifted to park then released and reapplied the pedal. There was initial resistance at roughly the normal pedal height, and again the pedal slowly sank to the floor. When i shifted back to drive and tested the brakes i experienced a slightly diminished "initial grab" when applying the brakes which then would decrease even further while the pedal sank to the floor. When the pedal was completely depressed i had very very little braking ability. Ford has had the truck for over 3 weeks and states that they believe the master cylinder to be faulty and the lead time on a replacement is quite long. (3 weeks they hope). I have spoken with ford customer service and opened a case. The told me they would seek to prioritize the part for me. I have not heard from them (were supposed to call last thursday) dealer has no updates for me either. In view of the recall for previous year f150 trucks for brake related issues that are identical to what i have experienced, i am not comfortable towing with this truck... Assuming it is actually fixed any time soon.
