Description of the problem	Vehicle operating normally until problem noted 7/13/2016. Vehicle purchased used from certified ford dealership on 5/16/2018. Currently has approximately 44,800 miles on odometer. Vehicle has been parked overnight and upon am startup and backing up suffered complete loss of braking ability when brakes were applied. Low brake reservoir indicator light on. Visual check revealed reservoir level well below minimum mark and level with inlets for the brake lines. Refilled, pumped brakes and able to obtain moderately firm pedal. Started vehicle, let idle few moments, tested brake pedal but found soft pedal again sinks immediately to floor and reservoir light on again. Visual check shows fluid again has emptied as described above. Vehicle had not been moved. A visual trace of all brake lines shows no external leakage along length of the lines nor at any brake component. Fluid is obviously being drawn into the vacuum boost reservoir. Vehicle has not been altered in any way from date of purchase. This is an extreme safety issue with a high probability of loss or life and/or severe injury to passengers and/or collision with other vehicles or objects due to this sudden, total brake failure. This is a catastrophic failure of the master cylinder system that produces a failure of the redundant braking arrangement (i. E. Separate front and rear brake systems). This appears from a quick google search of other complaints to becoming a known problem. Prompt action is urged by nhtsa to initiate a recall to correct these problem for obvious safety reasons.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
