Description of the problem	In late 2011, while driving my truck down highway 90 east in pascagoula, ms, the truck began slow down and pull dramatically to the right after applying the brakes. I managed to wrestle with the steering wheel and, in combination with the slowing speed, brought the truck safely to a stop in a walmart parking lot in about 1 mile. I inspected the truck and the front right rotor was smoking and glowing red hot. Apparently the brake caliper had seized after application. I went inside walmart to kill time and let the brakes cool off, hoping that when cooled, the caliper would release and the truck would be drivable. After approximately 1-1/2 hours, i returned to the truck and noted that the wheel was not smoking, but was still radiating heat. I began to drive the truck and it drove without any noticeable issues until i applied the brakes again to stop at a traffic light. After releasing the brake, the truck was now pulling to the left. Expecting a similar issue, i decided to drive directly to the ford dealership in pascagoula. However, upon needing to apply the brakes again, they did not work at all. I had to use the parking brake to bring the truck to a stop as the regular brakes had completely failed. I continued to experience similar brake issues (pulling and heating from seized calipers) and in june 2015 had a similar experience to the one in 2011. Looking at blogs and complaint sites, ford's super duty series of trucks, as well as f-150s, are known to have brake issues. This is a serious problem that ford needs to be held accountable to fix. Please help. I'm tired of shelling out $2,000+ when all i should have to do is replace the brake pads due to normal wear and tear. Due to the sudden and severe "pull" and subsequent loss of stopping ability, this has the potential to be a very serious safety problem.
