| Description of the problem | Soft brake pedal, pedal goes most of the way to floor to stop. Replaced master cylinder and pads. Informed that hydraulic control unit was bad as well(cost of an additional $1300. 00). Concerned about the cost of repair and stories of others that had repeated failures of the hcu. Ford should replace unit for free after the first occurrence. I will pay for the repair once, but don't want to be bleed repeatedly. |
