This first began when we went to Oregon from dry Central Valley in California and hit rain. Multiple error messages appeared: Service Advance Trac, Check 4x4, Hill Assist Not Available, ABS, Steering Assist Fault, etc. Power steering assist was lost and is now intermittent which creates a dangerous situation. The ABS brakes made load groaning noises. I went to O-??Reilley-??s and used their OBD2 scanner. It showed codes: U1012-00, U0212-00, U0121-00, P062C-00, all being communication errors. I got a new battery and had a shop scan it. The clockspring was bad so it was replaced with an OEM from Sunrise Ford. He can-??t get any communication with any of the other modules. I researched the issues and disconnected the battery while I cleaned the ABS controller connection with electrical contact cleaner. I checked some of the grounding points that weren-??t checked by the shop. All of the error messages are now gone except the STEERING ASSIST FAULT. My research showed that this may be related to a wheel speed sensor or the front hub that contains the sensor. It also might be the ABS controller. I entered Engineering Test Mode and have the following continuous DTCs: C40182, C12100, C41582, C42082, C15100, C21200, C42982, C10200. Since they all end in 00 or 82 I think they are likely related. I was told in an online forum that they are communication errors. I think that might apply to the 00 errors, but don-??t know about the 82 errors. The truck has under 28,000 miles and the extended warranty expired in May 2024.

The truck was parked overnight and operating normal. I started it up the next day and the brake pedal went straight to the floor. It's leaking brake fluid all over from the front passenger brake hose. The dealership says it is not under recall or fixable by warranty. This could have been extremely dangerous on a highway or while towing. This vehicle has just over 61k miles.

Went to hit the brakes and they went all the way to the floor and come to find out the brake line was completely shredded. I have it at Les Schwab tire center in Lincoln city right now getting fixed. It-??s going to cost me $950 for all of this. And now my kids and I are stranded.

While parking my truck in my shed the passenger side flexible brake hose ruptured and all the brake fluid gushed out. I almost immediately lost my front brakes. I pull a 9,000 lb camper and was fortunate I was not pulling it when this occurred or this could have put my family and anyone in other vehicles on the road at risk of severe injury or death. I had the truck towed to a local Ford dealership. The technician there confirmed that the front passenger side brake line flexible hose ruptured and that the driver's side needed to be replaced as well. There was no warning lights prior to the event. But soon after the brake hose ruptured a warning that the brake fluid level was low came on.

I had no problems with my brakes on my F150 2017... actually I was amazed how long I went with out brakes before getting them fixed. My problems began when I decided to get new brakes. I asked for the brakes that were on the car origanally when I first bought them. Well I don't think the new brakes on the car lasted no more that 3 - 6 weeks until I had to bring the truck back to have them fix the bumptybump experience that I have when applying the brakes when coming down the hill. So everytime I'm coming down the hill I get nervous because I feel the brakes will give out completely one day.

Driver front brake hose ruptured and pedal went to the floor (thankfully while parked). Upon inspection, found the passenger front brake hose to be swollen in the same place directly below the crimp where the fitting is attached. There were no warning signs or symptoms prior to this failure and I hate to think what could have happened if this failure occurred somewhere like an interstate off ramp or some emergency braking situation. The parts can be made available for inspection before Dec 31 2024.

Front passenger brake line burst after leaving dealership for PA state inspection (which the truck passed) 70k miles on truck no lift or other modifications stock f150

I was stopped at a red light when all of a sudden with no warning my brake peddle went to the floor and my truck started rolling backwards. I was terrified, but luckily there was no one behind me else I would have hit them. I have a scheduled appointment with a ford dealer to check the brakes on Monday May 6th 2024. I looked up the issue and apparently some F150s have been recalled for a brake fluid leak from the brake boosters master cylinder- recall # 20S31 (22V150000). But my truck doesn't have any recalls?

- Bound Brook, NJ, USA

Brake Booster failed to operate. When driving and needing to stop the brake peddle was stiff and would not compress failing to safely stop the vehicle. I had to stand on the brakes as hard as I could to come to a stop. Shortly afterwards the dashboard alerted me to Check Brake System. Upon reading DTCs it showed P0555 (Brake Booster Pressure Sensor Circuit) and P0556 (Brake Booster Pressure Sensor Circuit Range/Performance). Vehicle no longer is safe to operate. I had this issue back in 2019 on several occasions but it was intermittent and self resolved itself after pumping the brakes. I took it to a Ford dealership. They kept the truck for 2 months saying they couldn-??t duplicate the issue and that there were no recalls for my VIN and gave the truck back to me saying it was safe to drive. I have not had the issue again until now. Pumping the brakes and restarting the engine doesn-??t make it go away like it did before.

My advanced track warning light comes on then all the lights on the dash and start going off one warning after the other. (Low oil, limited breaking, tire pressure, etc.) Then all electrical components in the vehicle turns off while driving. Its been serviced by the dealer which they replaced the break booster sensor. About 2-3 weeks later, it started happening again only this time when i drive the breaks lock up now and grind to the addition of everything lighting up the dash and all electrical components turn off while driving. Dealer charger me $900 for first repair now they-??re charging me $2500 to start for the APIM replacement. They are not clear on issue. They stated well start with apim and go from there.

My truck went to Bolton Ford in Lake Charles, Louisiana for a Brake Master Cylinder Recall on September 07, 2023. Upon receiving my truck back that afternoon, the repair was stated to have been successfully completed. After driving about twenty miles, a loud alert came on in the truck, and an alert came on the dash stating, "Check Brake System", also the Brake light by the tachometer. I immediately pulled over and called the dealership service department. I checked under the hood, and only found that the fluid reservoir cap was slightly loose. They advised watching the truck and getting it back as soon as I could. Turning the key off, cleared the warning. The warning happened two more times that day on my way home. I returned the truck back to the dealer for service two more times again after this time for the same problem. They have worked on my vehicle a total of three times for the same problem and still not fixed. It went in for a preventative recall, and now is constantly malfunctioning. I picked it up yesterday (10/12/2023) after the third repair attempt. I drove on the interstate 35 miles. Returning, the same "Check Brake" warning alerted, and the brakes were almost impossible to apply when I pressed them. Finally, the brakes applied. This has become a very dangerous situation. Please advise where to go from here.

When I went to stop as I pulled up behind another car at a gas pump, my brake pedal went completely to the floor and I had no brakes. I then left the gas station to go to my place of employment down a hill and my ability to brake was very minimal. I lost my front brakes in my F150 and later found out that only the back brakes were stopping me. I had to have my truck towed and found out that my front brake hose burst and the second one was bubbled and ready to burst as well. I have saved the brakes hoses if the NHTSA would like them for examination.

2017 F150 with approximately 71k miles. The front passenger-side flexible brake line split and sprayed out all brake fluid from the system. This happened while parked and in the process of shifting into gear with the brake pedal pushed down. The pedal went to the floor without resistance due to loss of brake fluid pressure. The truck was towed to a Ford dealer for inspection with the expectation this would be covered under the extended warranty. The dealer service center reviewed the issue and recommended replacement of the hose due to it "spewing fluid near crimp connection". The dealer is not covering this under warranty even though the same issue is a recall item on Ford Edge and Fusion models. It is extremely fortunate this happened while parked and not while driving. This could have easily resulted in significant damage, injury, or death with a complete loss of brakes while driving.

Brake booster. Have a 2016 f150 that has an open recall, but our 2017 f150 5.0 is the one with the brake booster failure. Wife and kids in the truck and brake fluid sensor went off and within 20 minutes she could hardly brake.

My front right brake line busted on my 2017 F150 STX. This 5 year old truck has under 70 thousand miles on it and it matches up with the Master Brake Caliber Recall 22S11 or 22S14. I think my vehicle should be included in the recall. Brake lines don't just bust and I could have seriously injured someone or myself because of this faulty part.

Brakes slowly stop holding while at a stop for too long; such as at a red light or waiting for a train, and takes more force from driver to stop vehicle. After inspecting the braking system I found brake fluid leaking between the brake booster and master cylinder. With a little investigating I found Ford already recalled the same part number for other F150 trucks but mine was not in that group from the same model year. The current recall needs to be expanded to cover every truck with that part number. Due to this failure i was involved in a low speed TC in a parking lot when my brakes stopped holding.

The contact owns a 2017 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving 80 MPH and depressing the brake pedal, the brake pedal was soft. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed: however, the results were not yet available. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 74,862.

Good day to whom it may concern, on February 13,2021 I had a major brake failure while parking my truck when the brake pedal went to the floor as I was backing up. The reason this is a concern is that I regularly have my vehicle serviced at only Ford dealerships. The two most recent times I had service was on January 21,2021 the works oil and filter change which incudes inspecting inspecting the brake system; and October 27,2020 the works oil and filter change which includes inspecting the brake system at which time I had rear brake work done by future Ford Lincoln of concord 2258 diamond blvd. Concord ca.94520. The technician said it was to much pressure applied to my brakes while backing up and parking. I have not ever experienced this through over 40 years of driving and it is a very concerning issue that I would like to know if it can be investigated into please. Thank you

Doing approximately 45mph, in freezing temps and light snow, approached a yellow light. Had plenty of distance to stop and began to apply brakes. Truck began to slow, but suddenly felt like the brakes let go or maybe hit a patch of ice. Let off and depressed the pedal again. The pedal went to the floor. I began pumping them which was slowing the vehicle, but I ended up in the middle of the intersection, narrowly avoiding a side impact with a semi and looking like a moron. My entire family was in the truck and this was very close to a disaster. Afterwards the brakes were soft and continued to do the same. When the pedal was held down it would slowly go to the floor, feeling like all hydraulic pressure was bleeding off. The initial occurrence happened on a city road in motion. Of course the truck warranty ended about 500 miles prior. This vehicle has been babied, only used for weekends. Being told by dealer that a seal failed in the master cylinder and possibly a hydraulic control unit. Estimate to repair is over $2500 to repair a very new vehicle that costs over $50,000.

I was backing into my driveway and stepped on the brake to stop the vehicle and the brake pedal went to the floor - no brakes. I didn't have time to try pumping the brakes or stepping on the emergency brake. The vehicle impacted the garage door damaging it to the point that it needs to be replaced. The replacement cost is $1,833.33. The vehicle impact points were the plastic parts of the tailgate, bumper and trailer hitch. There was no visible damage to the vehicle. The brakes worked fine again after the incident. I had skyline Ford check the brakes and they could not find any trouble codes or problems with the brakes during a test drive. I now don't trust the brakes and am concerned that it could happen again with more severe consequences.
