Description of the problem | I was driving down the road and when i tried to brake for a stop light the brake pedal pulsed against the pressure of my foot and would not let me stop. I used the emergency brake to keep from wrecking my vehicle into the vehicle in front of me. I decided to go directly to my workplace, using my emergency bake to stop at each light/stopsign, after this happened. In addition to the brake issue, when i went to accelerate from stop the vehicle would accelerate very slowly as if in a limp mode. No lights have appeared on my dash and ford has told me there are no codes stored. They say that having it towed has reset my vehicle?!? Ford has told me that because they dont see any codes stored in the computer i should pick up my vehicle and drive off with it. My father ownes a mobile electronics shop and has seen lots of different issues on many vehicles where the cpu's in the vehicle has issues and causes the vehicle to act in many faulty ways. Some with codes, others without. It appears to me that one or more of the cpu's in my vehicle have a defect causing my vehicle to act this way. I feel very unsafe driving this car now and do not agree with ford that i should continue driving my vehicle. |
