Description of the problem	For several years i have not been able to trust my brakes. If i hit a bump i will lose my brakes, and have to keep pumping them the get them to stop. If i hit another bump it seems to put them back to normal. However over the course of the last 2 years my brakes have gotten steadily worse. At this point they don't want to stop me at all. 01/19/2021 i almost had a serious accident driving down base (a country road), i was driving around 35 miles an hour but was slowing down because i knew the stop sign was up ahead. I came to the stop sign and had no brakes. A car was coming and i kept pulling the steering wheel to the right and i was finally able to get the car pulled to the side of the road. By a ditch. No one was hurt luckily, but it could have been much worse. My brakes have been recalled since january of 2020 and i have had problems with them since 2017. But no one could figure out what was going on. I do have the documention from don meyer ford showing where i took my brakes in explaining that my brakes were bad. They explained to me the cost of getting new brakes but also told me that i would have to pay and then i may get reimbursed or i may not. I don't have that kind of money to pay for new brakes at this time. Not only do i drive this car back and forth to work i raise my granddaughter who also rides in this car with me. Please see attached invoice from where i had my brakes checked, also first recall date jan 2020 and second recall dated oct 2020. .

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
