| Description of the problem | I was driving on country roads with snowy conditions, and when i started braking to make a turn,abs engaged because of slippery roads, immediately thereafter i experienced a lack of braking power /a soft sinking brake pedal with little to no braking power. This is a traffic safety hazard, upon doing some online research i discovered that this is a common problem , the abs control module, or the hydraulic control assembly has a sticking valve in the abs system, routing the brake fluid through the abs system instead of to the brakes, where it should go. Ford motor company should be issuing a recall for the safety of the vehicle owners, and for the integrity of their own company the abs control module needs to be updated and replaced |
