Brake peddle went clear to floor Aug 2015, were told by Ford dealership break fluid ran into the brake booster. Did not cause a crash we were at a stop light on hill and started rolling backwards put on emergency brake before we rolled into the car behind us once light turned green we went up the hill and tried to turn could not stop and pedestrians were in crosswalk so we could not turn had to go straight and pull over. We were in downtown and found out later if we were able to turn it was a very steep down hill so good that we ended going straight it could have been a big issue for us. This issue once fixed then caused the bake lights not work work so we went back to dealership due to a switch that went bad due to the brake peddle going to the floor since we were on vacation in nashville tn when we left and started on road again soon found out that it also caused the bakes would not turn off the cruise control while driving on highway at 70 mph, we would hit brakes and we were still going 70 mph we did not know what was going on so we manually turned off cruise with switch on steering wheel. We had to get fixed once we returned to Ohio. Ford paid for our 3 extra day stay in a motel while we waited for parts to be found by us and our dealership in Ohio since there seemed to be no brake boosters available during this time. Once we found parts had them shipped to mid ten Ford in nashville tn.

Since I purchaced my truck in March of last year.twice I had brake pedal issues.when applying the brakes trying stop. The pedal was very slow to return to its normal position.the next time the pedal went completely to the floorboard as if I was bleeding the brakes. After both incidents I took it to the dealership's. both dealership's said they are normal after road testing my truck.

The rear brakes of my 2014 F 150 sporadically lock up for a few sec after short or long distance highway drive. The actual lock up occurs when I make a turn into and around a parking lot. Once I have completed the turn the brakes quickly release themselves. I have taken it to my local Ford dealer but can never replicate it, so nothing has been to even look at the braking system. The dealership told me it is probably just the ABS acting up once in awhile.

Lost all braking unexpectedly. Brake pedal went all the way to the floor and I immediately hade no brakes whatsoever. Described exactly as in this article - www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/us-investigates-420000-Ford-F-150S-for-brake-failure-371060011.html I was leaving my office parking garage and was very lucky to have acted quickly to engage the emergency brake. Co-workers helped me push the vehicle back into an empty parking spot where it was later towed to the dealership at dealership's expense. Around 10K miles or less at the time of the incident. Ford dealership said all fluid had leaked from the master cylinder into the booster. I view this as a serious defect and am highly suspect of the safety of this vehicle, as a result. Please advise.

Took grandkids to soccer practice and brakes failed. Pushed pedal and it went to floor. Pumped pedal and regained brake power. Fluid low indicator came on, so I put fluid in and limped 1 mile home...the no fluid light came on and no brakes. There is no indication of fluid leaking in the wheels or master cylinder.

Brakes failure at 20,200 miles. Brake booster and master cylinder failed while pulling out of garage. After stopping with the E-brake, several dash warning illuminated and a message of low brake fluid appeared. No fluid was found in reservoir and was sucked into the brake booster. Ford attempted to blame the failure on the after market charge air cooler. Truck is S 2014 Ford F-150 platinum 3.5L ecoboost 4X4.

While driving truck and taking offramp to service road, pushed brakes and they were hard, no response. Got truck off the road without a collision, had truck towed to dealership and they replaced a vacuum pump on the brake system. Truck had 21,500 miles. 3 weeks later while driving on the highway again same thing happened. Had truck towed to the dealership where it is at now waiting for a diagnosis on repair. How can this be same for brakes to fail so often without a recall from Ford Motor Company "?"

Failure of master cylinder and booster pump. All fluid drained into booster with no warning. Repaired under warranty. Vehicle has only 9600 miles. Vehicle lost all braking ability (excluding ebrake) within 60 seconds of a low fluid alert.

As as I exiting I-95 onto an off ramp in a 2014 F-150 (going about 45mph at the time of breaking) I started to brake in order to slow to an appropriate speed to make a slight right curved turn. Within 1-2 seconds, my steering locked up, and the tires began to screech. I was unable to control my steering and the brakes did not seem to respond to the amount of pressure I was putting on the break pedal. While I did eventually stop, I would have definitely rear ended someone if they were in front of me. Thankfully I had an open lane. Once I was completely stopped, the car returned to normal operation and I was able to pull over and inspect my vehicle. I was unable to find anything that would signal an issue, so I drove it home and called the dealership. They told me there was nothing they could do if the system was not registering any errors and the truck was (currently) performing normal. Additionally, about 1 month prior, as I was accelerating and then began to brake due to a stop light change, the brake petal began to vibrate and the car made a 3 second grinding sound untill I let off the brake, and again performed normally thereafter.

Brakes do not always react as they should when you hit the brake pedal. 1-2 sec. Delay

Travelling at highway speeds. Low brake fluid indicator came on. Pulled over, topped off brake fluid. Had to purchase 24oz of fluid to get it to level. Drove another 20 miles. Indicator came back on. Added 12oz more of fluid and made it home. The next morning the brake pedal went straight to the floor. No brakes at all. No sign of leak anywhere. No fluid on driveway. Vanishing fluid? not sure how my truck can hide 36oz+ of brake fluid if it's not in the reservoir.

- Cedar Park, TX, USA

Started vehicle and pushed on brake to switch to reverse, warning message that vehicle was low on brake fluid. Verified by looking at master cylinder, added brake fluid and started driving. Within 3 miles same message, parked vehicle called Ford. They picked up the vehicle and called me later to advise that the master cylinder failed and the brake booster sucked all the fluid into it. They both needed replaced as well as other brake related stuff. I researched and I know I am not the first to have this exact same problem, I am just lucky I wasnt on the freeway at speed when this occurred.

While checking engine oil noticed a "sucking" noise coming from the brake fluid reservoir and noted it was empty. Added some additional dot 4 fluid up to the min mark and within 30 minutes it was empty again. Traced all the brake lines and inspected the brake calipers and no leaks noted. Went to start the truck to move it and the low brake fluid light illuminated and the brake pedal when pressed went to the floor. No other signs of brake issues prior to this point. Had the vehicle towed to a Ford dealership and they stated that the master brake cylinder and brake booster are defective and need to be replaced. The brake fluid was leaking into the brake booster and collecting there hence no visible leakage. Fortunately the incident occurred in my driveway, but if it had occurred on the road who knows what the results would have been. The truck has ~21,800 miles and was purchased new in November 2014 with a build date in August 2014. Quick search on the internet has turned up similar instances with the same year, make, model, and ~ mileage.

Brakes suddenly failed on the highway, had the vehicle towed back to a Ford service center and it turned out that the brake booster component flooded with brake fluid which is a mayor failure and is never supposed to happen, even the service manager at sawgrass Ford agrees with that assessment. Doing some research online I found out this component has failed around the country and Ford has done nothing to improve the part's safety. I've already filed a complaint the state of Florida attorney's office and now I'm doing the same with you. The sudden failure of this part represents a very grave safety situation as the brakes are without a warning completely disabled once it happens.

At approximately 12,600 miles on my newly purchased vehicle, I experienced brake vibration, a hesitation and jerk in transmission at low accelerating speed or slowing down and then accelerating, and a loud whining noise from rear end between 60-65 miles per hour. I took it to river city Ford and they turned the rotors for the brakes. I told river city Ford that was unacceptable for a new vehicle and by turning the rotors they just reduced the life of the rotors for a new vehicle. I also told them that the brake pads should be replaced also. I contacted Ford Corp and they would not take any action and would not let me talk to anyone higher than a customer service supervisor. River city Ford has had my vehicle in the shop since 7/20/2015. They have tried shimming ring and pinion in rear end and it did not fix the problem. They have tried various things and has not fixed the problem. They claim that adding grease to the transmission supposedly fixed the jerking when accelerating. Ford Corp has wasted a lot of time trying to fix a known problem by Ford. My research shows the rear end issue has existed for years and many customers have experienced the problem. Brake vibration, transmission jerking, and loud humming from the rear end are all safety issues, that if a failure occurs, could result in an accident at high speed.

While driving on the interstate @ 75 miles per hour, the low brake fluid light came on. At that time I tried my brakes and the pedal went straight to the floor, started down shifting and using the parking brake to stop. Truck was towed to the Ford dealership, dealer informed me that the master cylinder had leaked all fluid from the reservoir into the break booster and into vacuum lines. Could be up to a month to get parts to fix. Dealers said it looks like this is a problem and that is why the parts are on back order. Why is there no recall on this?
