Upon braking, brake pedal went to the floor, afterwhich a flash fire developed which did extensive damage to wireing, steering column shaft & gear box, 4WD actuation lines etc. This vehicle has had multiple brake service & recalls on the brakes. Ford has redesigned the front rotors & hubs but refuses to upgrade early production vehicles. All early production 1999 Ford F250sd vehicles should be recalled for complete brake system replacement. The rotors warp, they shake when stopping, they have had multiple rear brake recalls, the antilock brakes release & will not stop on rough roads & now mine went on fire. These trucks are death traps! this incident occurred with a vehicle that had only been driven 3 miles, & had no load in the bed. What would have happened if I was in the mountains of Pennsylvania towing my 5000 lb trailer & lost the brakes & had a fire ? when I reported this incident to Ford I got the impression that they really didn't care.

Parking brake does not hold when set. A lot of force is need to set barking brake. Campain id 98V101000 seems to be the same problem with my F250 superduty. ABS problem: Brakes go into ABS mode when braking on rough (bumpy roads) dry road surfaces. This happens when truck has no load in it. My stopping distances are increased unpredictably..

The electronic ABS 2 wheel control is to senstive. If a bump or pothole is encountered when stopping the ABS will trigger. This extends stopping distance by 40%. ABS will not disingeage untill foot is released from brake and reapplied which in most cases will not stop vehicle in time. My ABS has triggered 6 times in dry weather normal driving, dealer's response is that ABS is showing no fault codes and is working as "designed". this is not safe and could lead to a large truck rear ending a smaller vehicle because of a bump or pothole in the road!

Catastrophic brake failure when metal brake line broke completely. No warning. Brake was fine then next depression of pedal, pedal went to floor with no braking. No traffic on straight road allowed me to stop ok. Otherwise this could very well have been a fatal accident. More details if you are interested.

When traveling on highway the brakes, on bumpy surface, suddenly let loose. There are no brakes at all until smooth pavements and slower speed. Speed is not a factor between 25mph, the problem still occurs. Dealer contacted and will check out and contact owner. No response for one month.

ABS problems; when applying the brakes during normal braking, more during emergency situations, there is a spongy feeling and a ticking noise coming from the system. The truck does not stop unless driver really jams the brake pedal down. The dealer is not aware of the problem.
