SERVICE BRAKES
COMPLETE BRAKE FAILURE. WHILE MY 15 YEAR OLD SON WAS DRIVING WITH HIS LEARNERS PERMIT, WE WERE EXITING A HIGHWAY. THE WEATHER WAS CLEAR AND DRY. AS HE WAS SLOWING DOWN THE VEHICLE ON A 65MPH HWY OFF RAMP, AT APPROXAMATLY 35-40 MPH THE LOW BRAKE FLUID LIGHT CAME ON AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT SOFT AND ALMOST TO THE FLOOR. HE WASN'T ABLE COME TO COMPLETE STOP. WE MADE A RIGHT TURN ROLLING ONTO THE CROSS STREET AND AN ONCOMING VEHICLE HAD TO SLAM ON THEIR BRAKES TO AVOID US. I THEN TOOK OVER THE DRIVING TO GET THE VEHICLE HOME. IT WAS CLEAR THERE WERE NO POWER BRAKES AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS SOFT, TAKING MUTCH MORE DISTANCE TO DEPRESS THE PEDAL. ONCE WE WERE HOME I ADDED BRAKE FLUID AGAIN AND AGAIN TOTALING TWO QUARTS OF FLUID. THE FLUID WOULD ONLY LAST IN THE RESERVIOR FOR SEVERAL MINUTES THEN IT WOULD DRAIN DOWN. THERE WERE NO SIGNS OF FLUID LEAKING ANYWHERE ALONG THE ENTIRE BRAKE SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE IS NOW UNDRIVABLE. MY ASUMPTION IS THAT THE FLUID IS LEAKING INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THE VEHICLE IS IN TRANSIT TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTICS.

I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE MY WIFE'S STORY ON WHAT HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING MY 2015 F-150 3.5L ECOBOOST LAST THURSDAY 9/5/2019. AROUND 5:30PM MY CELL PHONE RINGS AND THE ID SHOWS THAT IT IS MY WIFE CALLING ME. I FIGURED SHE WAS CALLING ME TO TALK ABOUT HER DAY OR WHAT I WAS MAKING FOR DINNER BUT SHE WAS REALLY CALLING ME TO TELL ME MY TRUCK'S BRAKE AND FLUID LIGHT SENSOR CAME ON. SHE WAS WORRIED ABOUT DRIVING THE TRUCK ANY FURTHER AS SHE WAS COMING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. I TOLD HER THAT I WOULD GOOGLE TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE WAS HAVING THIS ISSUE AND THAT I WOULD CALL HER RIGHT BACK. I QUICKLY SEARCHED 2015 F-150 BRAKE AND FLUID LIGHT SENSOR AND INSTANTLY FOUND SEVERAL POSTS ABOUT PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE. AFTER READING A COUPLE VERY QUICKLY, MOST PEOPLE SAID THAT THEY LOST THEIR BRAKES INSTANTLY OR WITH IN MINUTES. I WAS WORRIED SO I QUICKLY CALLED HER BACK AND CALMLY ASKED HER IF SHE COULD GET OFF THE HIGHWAY OR PULL OFF ASAP. I THEN PROCEEDED TO TELL HER THAT SHE MIGHT LOSE THE BRAKES IN THE TRUCK. I TOLD HER TO CALL ME IF THE VEHICLE BECAME WORSE. AT THAT TIME SHE WAS CLOSE TO THE EXIT. AS SHE WAS APPROACHING THE OFF RAMP THE BRAKE PEDAL PUSHED ALMOST TO THE FLOOR. SHE PRESSED THE PEDAL AGAIN BEFORE GETTING TO THE YIELD SIGN AND REALIZED THAT SHE WAS LOSING THE BRAKES. LUCKILY THE TRAFFIC WAS NOT HEAVY IN THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND ALLOWED HER TO RUN THE YIELD SIGN WITHOUT HAVING THE ABILITY TO STOP IF NEEDED. SHE GOT IT STOPED. SHE THEN CALLED ME AGAIN TO TELL ME THAT THE TRUCK LOST ITS BRAKES AND THAT IT WAS UNABLE TO BE DRIVEN. AT THIS TIME THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR EVERY TIME SHE PRESSED IT. WHEN I ARRIVED AT HER LOCATION THE BRAKE FLUID WAS ABOUT EMPTY. I REFILLED IT AND PRESSED THE BRAKES A FEW TIMES. WE HAD IT TOWED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP. FORD FOUND THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER FAILED. I'M STILL WAITING FOR THEM TO GET THE REPLACEMENT PART IN.

SERVICE BRAKES
I DEPRESSED BRAKE PEDAL TO START TRUCK. ONCE TRUCK STARTED THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH ILLUMINATED. TRIED MOVING THE TRUCK A COUPLE FEET TO SEE IF I HAD BRAKES, AND THE TRUCK DID NOT STOP WHEN THE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. USED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP. CHECKED THE MASTER CYLINDER, IT WAS EMPTY. I ADDED ABOUT 10 OZ. OF BRAKE FLUID, PUMPED UP THE BRAKES AND IT WORKED. DROVE ABOUT 8 MINUTES TO WORK, BRAKES OK. I RETURNED TO THE TRUCK AFTER WORK, ABOUT 10 HOURS AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AGAIN AND NO BRAKES. I FILLED MASTER CYLINDER AGAIN AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. I DROVE VERY SLOWLY AND CAREFULLY BECAUSE I EXPECTED TO BRAKES TO FAIL AT ANY TIME. I LIVE 5 MILES FROM WORK. IF IT WAS ANY MORE I WOULD HAVE HAD THE TRUCK TOWED. I WILL HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALER IN THE MORNING.

SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKE FAILURE DUE TO BRAKE FLUID LEAKING THROUGH MASTER CYLINDER AND BEING SUCKED INTO THE EXHAUST. THE FLUID IS SUCKED OUT OF THE BRAKE SYSTEM THROUGH A VACUUM LINE IN THE MASTER CYLINDER AND BOOSTER WHICH LOWERS THE FLUID LEVEL AND LETS AIR INTO THE BRAKE LINES. THE BRAKE FLUID IS THEN BURNED IN THE EXHAUST AND CREATES WHITE SMOKE FROM THE EXHAUST PIPE. THE "LOW BRAKE FLUID" LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING ON A MAIN CITY ROAD AND THE BRAKES WENT OUT IMMEDIATELY AFTER. THE VEHICLE WOULD STOP ONLY IF THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS COMPRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE EMERGENCY BRAKE HAD TO BE USED TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A COMPLETE STOP. AFTER THE "LOW BRAKE FLUID" LIGHT CAME ON, MORE BRAKE FLUID (32 OZ) WAS ADDED BUT IT WAS IMMEDIATELY SUCKED THROUGH THE MASTER CYLINDER AND INTO THE EXHAUST AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE A LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP FLUSH THE BRAKE SYSTEM AS I ASSUMED THERE WAS AIR IN THE LINES DUE TO THE LOW FLUID LEVEL. AFTER THE DEALERSHIP FLUSHED THE BRAKE AND REPLACED ALL FLUID THE VEHICLE STILL HAD NO BRAKES. THIS IS WHEN THE PROBLEM WITH THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS DISCOVERED.

POWER TRAIN
THE TRANSMISSION DROPS OUT OF GEAR AND CANNOT BE REENGAGED UNTIL VEHICLE IS STOPPED SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED. PROBLEM HAS INCREASINGLY GOTTEN WORSE FROM A MILD FAIL TO ENGAGE AFTER A THREE POINT TURN AROUND TO CURRENT CONDITION. LAST MOST DRAMATIC EVENT OCCURRED YESTERDAY WHILE ON I-75 NEAR LEXINGTON, PULLING A TRAVEL TRAILER WHEN IT DROPPED OUT OF SIXTH GEAR IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE WITH A TRACTOR TRAILER BEHIND THE TRUCK. VEHICLE WENT TO IDLE, WRENCH LIGHT APPEARED. THERE WAS NO THROTTLE RESPONSE AND TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT REENGAGE. HAD TO PULL OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT VEHICLE DOWN. UPON RESTARTING TRANSMISSION WORKED NORMALLY UNTIL REACHED DESTINATION. TWO FORD DEALERSHIPS HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THIS PROBLEM. ONLY ONE ERROR CODE HAS APPEARED, P0731. TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS ADDED AND CODE WAS CLEARED. PROBLEM WAS NOT RESOLVED. OTHER DEALERSHIP COULD NOT REPLICATE PROBLEM WITH NO CODES PRESENT. FORD CUSTOMER CARE HAS BEEN CONTACTED REGARDING THIS ISSUE. APPOINTMENT MADE WITH LOCAL DEALER. HOWEVER, EVIDENT THEY DO NOT KNOW HOW TO RESOLVE. *TR

SITTING AT A STOP SIGN AND "LOW BRAKE FLUID" LIGHT CAME ON. DROVE LESS THAN A MILE HOME READY TO USE THE EBRAKE AFTER NOTICING THE BRAKE WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BEFORE STOPPING, SO DIDN'T KNOW HOW MUCH WAS LEFT. THE BRAKE FLUID WAS VERY LOW. ADDED BRAKE FLUID, DROVE IT AROUND THE BLOCK AND AS I WAS PULLING INTO THE DRIVEWAY, THE "LOW BRAKE FLUID" LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. TURNS OUT, IT'S THE MASTER CYLINDER LEAKING ALL THE FLUID INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER, WHICH APPARENTLY IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT FORD IS OK WITH? THEY RECALLED THE 2013 AND 2014S, BUT 2015S AND 2016S ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. SHAME.

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK YESTERDAY MORNING ON THE FREEWAY MY "LOW BRAKE FLUID" WARNING CAME ON. AS I TRIED TO STOP AFTER EXITING THE FREEWAY, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH WHAT FELT LIKE WAS NO PRESSURE. ONLY AFTER FULLY SEATING THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR WAS I ABLE TO GET THE BRAKES TO GRAB AND GET STOPPED. LUCKILY IT WAS EARLY MORNING AND TRAFFIC WAS MINIMAL. WHEN I CHECKED MY BRAKE FLUID IT WAS WELL BELOW THE MINIMUM LEVEL MARK. USING ANOTHER VEHICLE AT WORK, I WENT AND BOUGHT A SMALL BOTTLE OF FLUID AND PUT THE ENTIRE THING INTO THE RESERVOIR, BRINGING UP TO ABOUT HALF WAY BETWEEN MIN AND MAX. OVER THE NEXT 10 MINUTES WE WATCHED THE LEVEL SLOWLY DROP DOWN BELOW THE MIN LINE AND BEYOND. I DROVE BACK TO THE STORE AND BOUGHT A LARGE BOTTLE OF FLUID, HAVING DECIDED I WAS GOING TO TAKE THE TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP. I FILLED THE RESERVOIR TO THE MAX LINE AND SET OUT AT A SLOW SPEED USING SIDE STREETS. I HADN'T WENT 2 MILES WHEN THE "LOW BRAKE FLUID" LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I CHECKED THE LEVEL, AGAIN DOWN BELOW MIN, AND I AGAIN REFILLED THE RESERVOIR, USING THE REST OF THE BOTTLE, AND CONTINUED ON....ONCE AGAIN WITHIN 2 MILES THE LIGHT RETURNED. I NEVER REALLY HAD BRAKE PRESSURE THROUGHOUT THIS TIME. NEVER ONCE DID I FIND EVIDENCE OF A LEAK. TODAY THE DEALERSHIP CALLED AND TOLD ME MY MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER BOTH NEED REPLACED, AND THE FLUID WAS BUILDING INSIDE THE BOOSTER, HENCE NO PUDDLE. MY TRUCK IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD, WITH LESS THAN 54,000 MILES ON IT SO IT SEEMS EARLY IN ITS LIFE TO HAVE THIS SYSTEM FAIL SUDDENLY. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE, INCLUDING THIS SITE, I'VE SEEN THAT THIS ISN'T QUITE AS UNCOMMON AS I ORIGINALLY THOUGHT IT WOULD BE. THERE SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN MANY INSTANCES OF THIS YEAR/MAKE/MODEL OF TRUCK LOSING ITS BRAKE SYSTEM AROUND THE SAME MILEAGE OR EARLIER.

MY 2015 F150 CREW CAB LOSES ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. YOU WILL BE GOING DOWN ROAD OR PULLING OUT AND WITHOUT ANY WARNING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS LIGHT UP AND THE GAS PEDDLE WILL DO NOTHING. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS WHILE IN TRAFFIC. THE TRUCK ONLY HAS 45,000 MI ON IT, DONE SOME RESEARCH AND IT SOUNDS LIKE I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM.

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION GOING ABOUT 5 MPH WHEN THE BRAKES FAILED WHEN I WAS TURNING INTO A PARKING SPOT AT THE PHARMACY ON 8/17/19. I HAD TO USE THE PARKING BRAKE TO COMPLETELY STOP WHEN PARKING THE TRUCK AND THEN ONCE STOPPED THE LOW BRAKE FLUID WARNING CAME ON. THEN I DROVE TO AN AUTO PART STORE THAT WAS A 1/4 OF A MILE DOWN THE ROAD AND PUT MORE BRAKE FLUID IN AND DROVE HOME, BUT ONCE I WAS HOME THE BRAKE FLUID TANK WAS EMPTY. I PUT MORE IN AND FOUND A PUDDLE OF BRAKE FLUID COMING OUT OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE TRUCK. THE TRUCK IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP AND THEY STATED THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED.

DRIVING ON FREEWAY AT 70 MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN VEHICLE ENTERS LIMP MODE WHICH DECELERATES TO 30 MPH IN THE LEFT LANE - CAR IN BACK OF ME HAD TO SLAM ON BRAKES AND SWERVE TO AVOID HITTING ME. THE WRENCH AND LIMP MODE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SHOULDER AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. MY TRUCK DID NOT REGAIN ACCERLATION AND I HAD TO HAVE A TOW TRUCK TAKE IT TO THE DEALER - I FOUND OUT TODAY IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY WHICH SOUNDS AS IF THIS A VERY COMMON ISSUE BUT WITH NO RECALLS. I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THAT LITTLE CAR IN BACK OF ME WOULD HAVE REAR ENDED ME, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED FOR SURE.

WHILE DRIVING IN DOWNTOWN TRAFFIC ON A CITY STREET, THE LOW BRAKE FLUID INDICATOR CAME ON AS WELL AS THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT NEARLY TO THE FLOOR AND BRAKING ABILITY WAS SEVERELY DIMINISHED. I HAPPENED TO BE CLOSE TO AN AUTO PARTS STORE SO I FILLED UP THE FLUID RESERVOIR WITH APPROXIMATELY 24 OZ. OF BRAKE FLUID. WITHIN ABOUT 3 MILES THE LIGHTS CAME ON AND BRAKES FAILED AGAIN. MY WIFE BROUGHT MORE BRAKE FLUID TO ME AND I ADDED APPROXIMATELY 24 OZ. MORE. I BARELY MADE IT HOME, ANOTHER 5 MILES, AS THE BRAKES WERE FAILING AND THE RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY AGAIN. THERE IS NO SIGN OF A LEAK. AFTER CHECKING ONLINE AND DISCUSSING WITH A FORD SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE, THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON DEFECT WHERE A SEAL IN THE MASTER CYLINDER HAS FAILED AND THE BRAKE FLUID IS BEING SUCKED INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER.
