 Description of the problemThis is the third time i have encountered this problem, and reported this problem as well. . Brought to ford dealership and told they did not find anything wrong with the vehicle. It continued to happen. I brought the truck to an independent repair shop who knew right away that the calipers were seized.. I paid approximately $1100. 00 for that brake job and told that ford would not warranty the parts it was beyond the warranty. I was told there was a re-design of the brake shoes. They replaced one rear rotors, "freed up" one rear caliper. I did advise drivers front was seizing up at one point as well. I was provided the rear rotors and shoes. The shoes were well within usable range which was noted by myself, also a diesel mechanic and a independent auto repair shop. The day i picked up the vehicle i was driving home lost all brakes. I had it towed at my own expense then they discovered the other rear caliper had in fact seized like i had told them they replaced it cost me for the repair. This year may 2013 was again noticed smell of the brakes burning, along with familiar bouncing. Only this time i drove 8 miles when heavy smoke was coming from front wheel what i told them last time and they didn't fix it back to the dealership it went. Although they fixed the problem it cost me the fee for the service. I paid the outrageous price of $2400. 00 in 2011 for the extended warranty knowing this truck would be costing far more than that in future. The mystery vibration some experience that cant be "repeated" at the dealership other than the crap of tire inflation or "road force balancing" which there is no tire shop within 50 miles of me that has ever heard of such a thing is most likely the brakes.
