 Description of the problemMy 2016 ford f150 3. 5l ecoboost didn't have its vin tagged for the leaking brake master cylinder recall. Reference 20s31. My truck was built at the dearborn plant and matches every single parameter for the recall. I was driving my truck down a colorado highway at a high elevation. My brakes started softening and felt almost no pressure in the pedal. My brake fluid low warning came on my dashboard along with the brake light indicator. I was able to get to a store to purchase brake fluid. Within 5 miles of driving after filling up the tank the warnings went off again my brakes weakened. It was very terrifying with having my partner and two dogs in the car with me. I spoke to a ford dealership and they said they won't cover these repairs. This is after i mentioned my life being in danger just trying to get to work. I had the truck inspected by a credible mechanic which told me that the issue matches the recall details perfectly. I believe now, the brake fluid has leaked from the master cylinder into the brake booster and is now leaking into the engine. An enormous amount of thick exhaust was being expelled from the truck on the second day of noticing brake failure. I believe ford should be responsible for any danger or harm that comes to me since they have turned me away just because of my vin not matching.
