This my second brake failure in approximately 2 months. I was driving homes from work on the hwy going 110km (66mph). I went to apply the brakes the pedal moved approximately 1/2"no further no brakes, dash went red in the center and red light under tach went red. I put the truck in manual mode hit the shoulder and down shifted. Truck was towed to the dealer for repairs. Last time vacuum pump now new lines.
called ford to raise a safety concern. ford had the truck for 5 days
this was the second chance serious injury to myself or others
one more to follow.

October 28 I had my third brake failure since February of this year. Driving to work on the hwy going 110km (60mph) I went to apply the brakes, the pedal moved approximately 1 / 2" and no further.I was lucky it was 4:40am and there was no traffic, I shifted to manual mode and geared the truck down. The truck again towed to the dealerships for the third time.
I have called ford and tale to the dealership that me and my family have lost confidence in the vehicle à nd want it replaced. The dealership is really trying to help but ford customer service can only read from scripted cue cards.
ford this time sad they found a vacuum leak in the 4x4 that would have could have caused the problem. My issue is they had the truck for nearly two weesk when they fixed the vacuum leak but before the apparent fix they could not replicate he problem so how do they know they fixed the problem? I asked for a writer guarantee but ford will not do that. The customer service at ford will not give a guarantee. I told ford I want the truck replaced if they can't guarantee the repair in writing.
to this point I have been lucky not to have been seriously injured or hurt someone else.
Forder customer serve final answer is if this happens again they will continue to try and fix the brakes AT NO COST to me.
