 Description of the problemMy wife was driving our 2 girls to our nanny's home and the brakes completely failed on her while she was driving. Fortunately she did't get too far. And thank goodness we were not traveling our normal commute which is on a 75 mph highway. I love my truck, but now i feel unsafe driving it. It is sitting now until ford fixes it. The more information i read and collaborate, the more disappointed i am in this vehicle and manufacturer. We already had one safety incident with this truck as the rear driver's side passenger seatbelt was installed backwards! Now the brakes failing completely while driving is the last straw. What is shocking to me is that there was a recall for this as far back as 2015 however, some of the faulty parts (master brake cylinder) trickled into production. This recall had to do with the brake master cylinder and if the vehicle was equipped with the faulty part, it could lose all of it's braking capability. Again, i am thanking my lucky stars that all of my girls are ok, but this is unaccep as a vehicle should not lose 100% of braking while in use. What if this happened on the highway we travel every week? Have a look at the attached photos. An empty brake fluid reservoir and zero brake fluid--anywhere.
