On 8-15-21 as I was driving, I was suddenly unable to break properly and had to depress the peddle almost down to the floor to engage the breaks. This happened one isolated time one month prior but went away. I had the car towed to Walnut Creek CA Ford for service where after multiplier test drives replicated the problem, flushed the break line and determined I needed a new HCU because of a sticking valve. I researched the issue and discovered this exact issue was the subject of a Ford recall in 2019 but of other models not including mine. I called Ford to see if they would cover the cost since it was a safety issue that they recognized in a very large recent recall that was the result of over 25 accidents and multiple deaths. Ford refused to cover the cost. NHTSA should be aware of this safety issue because it is effecting more cars than covered.
