Vehicle was parked, pressed brake pedal to start it and pedal went to floor. Found right front flex brake hose failed. Brake fluid spraying out just below the top fitting. Brake fluid low indicator came on while troubleshooting problem. OEM part not available from dealership replaced part with non-oem part.

The brake fluid reservoir cap cracked for reasons unknown allowing debris and contaminants to enter my braking system. I noticed this while checking the engine air filter. I went to the dealership to purchase a new cap and the parts salesman inform me that this is a very common issue... I'm concerned that issues my arise in the future relating to this problem.

The master cylinder. About August of 2021 I noticed that when I tried to brake, the pedal would lose pressure and I would start rolling until I applied more pressure. Eventually it got to the point where the pedal would go to the floor. I replaced the master cylinder and everything worked perfectly until again August of 2022. This time I had to warning of gradually losing pressure in the brake pedal. I was coming onto a feeder road off the highway and tried to slow down but noticed there was no pressure on the brake pedal. Thankfully in both cases no accidents occurred but not having brakes work properly is incredibly dangerous. I replaced the master cylinder again and it is working fine for now. I noticed the 3.5l has the recall but my truck is 2.7l but I'm having the exact same issue.

I had brake line rupture behind front right wheel and it caused immediate brake failure due to loss of fluid rapidly. There was no indication prior to this failure. My front brake lines had to be removed and replaced to correct problem. I had recently had my brake pads and rotors replaced at 104,000 mile this past June. My dealer had done at this time a full inspection of braking system in June. Yesterday, my brake pedal went all the way to the floor and I had to use emergency brake to stop.

The brake pedal loses pressure when applied. If applied for an extended period ( stopping at a red light ) the pedal will reach the floor. This can cause a serious accident. There have been 2 recalls addressing this problem but my vehicle was not listed in the either recall ( 20S31 & 22S11 ). My vehicle was built in Kansas in July 2016. Recall # 20S31 was issued for vehicles built Aug.1st. 2013 thru Aug. 31 2014. Recall 22S11 was issued for vehicles built Aug. 2 2016 thru Jan. 31 2017. There seems to be an on-going problem for this time period.

The front left brake line ruptured unexpectedly (no warning lamps leading up to the incident, no reduction in braking leading up to the issue; just sudden, unexpected loss of braking ability). Fortunately, this occurred while backing out of a parking spot; had this failure occurred moments earlier while driving on the highway, this could have been a much more dangerous situation. Following failure of the brake line, vehicle was towed to local dealership, who confirmed it was the brake line that failed "due to normal wear and tear", and that the master cylinder and other components were in good condition. The line was described by the mechanic to be "dried out and cracked from age" leading to a rupture. This vehicle was manufactured in 2016 with ~82,000 miles and has undergone routine maintenance as prescribed; so "normal wear and tear" does not seem so normal to me.

Downshifting while I was driving happened without warning. Besides the gear switch, I noticed problems with the speedometer, erratic gear shifting, and the transmission stuck in one gear. I could have caused a major accident by the vehicle as I was at moderately high speed in motion when the vehicle began to fail. I did also bang my head on the steering wheel when the truck began to decelerate on its own! Mechanics told me it was a problem with the OOS (Output Speed Shaft Sensor). I could have got in a major accident had I not had a quick reaction to the truck automatically downshifting while at a high rate of speed. There is currently NO recalls for the 2016 F-150 model however, I did research and found that there are issues recalls for this VERY same problem for older F-150 models. This is an incredibly dangerous problem. My truck at this time only has 66,000 miles. Not very many miles on it for a 2016 to have this type of issue. Major research needed to get this resolved asap! People-??s lives are at stake with this truck!

Brake fluid leak.brakes quit working immediately while on freeway causing us to zig zag to avoid crashing with other vehicles!

- Pleasant Grove , UT, USA

Brake pedal is hard to push down and doesn't work. Pedal is stuck high then slams to the ground with no warning. On several occasions I have almost rear ended the vehicle in front of me. This is a safety issue for myself, my children, and other drivers. This has happened numerous times. Ford has a recall for this same reason on other years and models of the Ford F-150. They need to include the 2016 in the recall as well. There is an internal brake fluid leak. I have taken to local dealer and they tell me there is no problem. When the brakes fail there is no warning, no lights, no chimes, nothing.

On 12/20/21, while driving home on State Route 7 from work, the low brake fluid warning appeared. I tried the brakes and as I tried to slow down, the pedal went all the way down. I almost went off the road but after pumping it was able to slow a bit. I was merging onto Interstate 8 West and slowly drove to figure out where to get off. The best off ramp was Imperial since it was uphill and managed to pull over after getting off and stopping the truck. Replaced the lost liquid and my brother in law followed me to his home. Same issue with brakes and slowly took it to his home. Took the vehicle to Ford dealer assuming that a recall on F150 due to master cylinder failure and leaking fluid onto the booster, which occurred to my vehicle that it would be covered in good faith by Ford. My VIN was not listed although the issue was similar to the recall. After calling the NHTSA and Ford, there was nothing else that I could do at that time but pay the service. My complaint is that I almost had an accident due to an issue that Ford had recalled various trucks and did not include my truck. The least that Ford can do is in good faith and that it was not an accident due to this failure, that repayment is made on the cost to repair master cylinder and booster.

The break pedal became unresponsive and would have to be pressed alot more that usual to stop the car and the stopping distance was much much longer. Then I noticed that every time I press the brakes oil shoots out from the front driver side. When I searched online I noticed that there is a similar recall for the exact same issue and same model year ford F-150, however my VIN number is not included in the recall.

- Los Gatos, CA, USA

The contact owns a 2016 Ford F-150. The contact was driving approximately 50 MPH, when the brake warning light illuminated. The contact was able to pull over and inspect the brake reservoir and noticed that it was empty. Upon investigation, the contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V332000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic) however, the VIN was not included. The vehicle was towed to a local dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 63,643.

This is a 2016 Ecoboost 3.5 F150 built in Kansas City plant. The brake booster leaked and I lost brakes. This is a current recall but my VIN is not included. How can my truck, the same model and powertrain as those recalled, in the same time period, built in the same plant, with the exact same issue not be part of the recall? I nearly crashed... the mechanic at the Ford dealer knew exactly what it was - how - well clearly its a bigger issue than what has bene recalled!!!!

Hi, I have a 2016 Ford F150 with the 3.5 ecoboost motor. The truck has roughly 80k miles on it currently. I replaced the front brake rotors and pads on the truck a few weeks ago. After the repair I had full brake ability and no issues what so ever. This weekend I was driving the truck when I received an audible alarm and on the heads up screen by the speedometer that said the brake fluid was low. I also had the red "brake" indicator on the dash. When this occurred I did loose what I would say was 80% of my braking ability. Luckily I was only a few blocks from home so I was able to get home. When home I took all 4 wheels off my truck looking for leaks and everything was dry. The brake fluid reservoir was in fact low so I put 12 oz. of fluid back in it and went to drive around the block to see if things were better. I made it about 3 blocks before I received again that brake fluid low warning again and then lost braking ability. I then called my wife and took the truck to a local brake shop about a mile away. After some research over night I ran across 20V-332 and wondered if my truck was part of this recall. I called Ford this morning and the confirmed it is. They have ordered a master brake cylinder and I am now waiting for they to correct the issue. I will be without me truck at a minimum of a week because of this issue.

Low brake fluid light came on while driving. Shortly thereafter (minutes) the brakes got very bad and unsafe. Basically the resistance left and the pedal went to the floor. It slowly stopped via brakes but very poorly. You couldn't make a quick stop if needed. Checked fluid it was empty. Added fluid. Drove to dealership, brakes were slightly better but sure enough 5 minutes into drive the low fluid light came on. I suspect it is emtpy again (I dropped at dealership and told them to check). Brakes starting working worse again, just like before (keep in mind they were'nt normal again even with the fluid, just a bit more resistance when i pumped the pedal). After the light came on, all resistances was gone again. Doing some research and talking to the dealership this sounds exactly like NHTSA campaing # 20V-332, however, my vehicle isn't covered because the cutoff for that is currently Aug 1 2016, while my truck was apparently built the following month in September. Dealer thinks it is the same issue. I called Ford and they are taking a wait and see attitude, but it sure seems fishy that the exact recall problem appears to suddenly pop up in a vehicle that fits all the descriptions except a month later...The guy I talked to said they used dealership reports to determine affected dates, so who knows. Car is at dealership getting fixed and it needs a new master cylinder.

Out of no where & no indication anything was wrong, my son was driving home & lost all brakes. Out of the 300,000 recalled for this reason our vin# wasn't on the list. So we had to pay the $1117. Ford did not seem to care when we reported it to their main office in Michigan. This could have caused a serious wreck or even a death!

Leaking brake booster line at 50,000 + miles I have to pay for out of pocket. Also throttle body replacement. Vehicle would lose power then throw a code P2112. Both bad safety issues.
