SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:POWER ASSIST
DROVE TRUCK INTO THE GARAGE, BRAKES WORKED FINE. NEXT DAY STARTED ENGINE AND NOTICED THAT BRAKE WARNNG LIGHT DID NOT GO OFF. WHEN BACKING OUT OF GARAGE, NOTICED THAT I HAD ONLY ABOUT 10% OF NORMAL BRAKING POWER. BROUGHT TRUCK TO A SLOW STOP AND CALLED LOCAL DEALER. TRUCK WAS TOWED IN. DEALER REPLACED A VACUUM PUMP ASSEMBLY, FORD PART F4TZ-2A451-A . PART COST $308.55, LABOR $101.99. HAD THIS TRUCK BEEN IN ITS NORMAL SERVICE, TOWING A 9,000 POUND TRAVEL TRAILER THE RESULTS MIGHT HAVE BEEN TRAGIC. I CONSIDER THIS A MAJOR DESIGN DEFECT. A BRAKE PART SHOULD NOT GO FROM 100% EFFECTIVE TO 10% WITH NO WARNING. DT
