SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKES WERE INTERMITTENTLY FAILING TO WORK. WHEN THEY MOST OFTEN FAILED WAS AFTER HITTING A POT HOLE OR SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD APPROACHING A SITUATION TO STOP WITH THE FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE ABS SYSTEM WOULD KICK IN AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD GO TO THE FLOOR LOSING PRESSURE AND BRAKING. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL NEAR MISS ACCIDENTS AND HAVE BLOWN STOP SIGNS AND RED LIGHTS BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. HAD IT IN THE SHOP SEVERAL TIMES TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. WHAT I HAD REPLACED WAS THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL ASSEMBY FOR THE ABS SYSTEM. A VALVE WAS STICKING IN THE MODULE THAT CAUSED THIS TO HAPPEN. I HAVE KEPT THE PART. I HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT FORD TO NO AVAIL.

WHILE TRAVELING AT 45 MPH TRAFFIC SLOWS. I COME DOWN HARD ON BRAKE. ANTI-LOCK BRAKE ACTIVATES, PEDDLE GOES SOFT AND CATCHES JUST ABOVE FLOOR. PEDDLE DOSE NOT RETURN TO NORMAL UNTIL CHECKED BY LOCAL MECHANIC AND HE RUNS A CHECK ON THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM. HOURS LATER BRAKES ARE BACK TO NORMAL. THIS IS THE SECOND OCCURRENCE OF THE PROBLEM. THE MKZ IS A CLOSE RELATIVE OF THE FORD FUSION.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON CONSTANTLY PASSENGER SIDE. THIS MAY CAUSE INJURY IF IN ACCIDENT I'VE REPLACES SEVERAL TIRES AND RECENTLY HAVE NEW ONES AND TIRE PRESSURE GOES COMPLETELY FLAT ON 2 BACK TIRES AND CONSTANTLY PUTTING AIR IN FRONT TIRES.. I RETURNED IT TO SERVICE STATION THAT INSTALLED TIRES AND HE SAID THE RIMS ARE SO CORRODED THAT'S WHY I'M LOSING AIR IN TIRES. THESE NEED REPLACED AND ARE COSTLY. I FEEL I MAY HAVE A BLOWOUT WHILE DRIVING IF I DON'T CHECK THESE DAILY. *TR
