| Description of the problem | Brake failure. Pedal went all the way to floor board with loss of braking power. I was driving at 35 mph on slight grade. I applied brake pressure for 10 seconds down the grade. As i approached a stop sign i applied stopping pressure. The brake pedal went soft and when all the way to the floor. I had to use the emergency brake to keep me from going into the intersection. The brakes then seem to work. I took it to my local ford dealer and they stated there is problem with some vin's but my is not one of them regarding the master cylinder. I was also told more brand new f-150 are having the same issue. My family could have been killed it is sitting at the dealer and they are trying to duplicate the problem.. |
