problem #1

Jul 192007

Mariner 4WD 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 2,507 miles
Car had 2,500 miles when both brake lights illuminated and only had manual braking. Car was towed to dealership where they needed to consult with Ford specialists to determine the problem because they weren't sure if it was the master cylinder or the brakes. The replacement part had to pulled from the assembly line because the parts were not due until 8-15-2007. Replaced master cylinder on 7-26-2007.
