Rotors and pads replaced after 6 months of purchase. Then, again after 3 months due to grinding noise and extended stopping distance. Currently, an independent mechanic found this was due to calipers being faulty, rotors and pads need replaced again at this time. Consumer stated rims and tires were also replaced, specific tire information was not given.

Was driving 55mph & vehicle would drift left when brakes applied. Took to dealer & nothing found. Drove some more & problem was getting worse. Took it back & service manager indicated problem was with the brakes. It was drifting left. Also, would drift when steering was released & shaking. Tires were found out of balance. Firestone, wilderness ATX, 0235/75R15. Right front tire went flat & was informed ran over a nail, but it could not be produced.

Vehicle pulled to the right or left when applying brakes in a sudden/emergency situations. Also, pedal pulsated when applying brakes, and became worse when applying brakes at higher speed. Vehicle has been in dealer's shop. Dealer informed consumer that nothing could be found.

Brakes pulling to left when stopping, dealer says Ford working on it. Dealer fails to attempt repair. Advises me to drive until notified in future.
