After starting the car with the keyless ignition the brakes remain locked. Restarts may release the brakes. Stomping on the brake may release the brakes. It's intermittent. Sometimes it occurs when driving eg. Stopping for a red light and then finding the brakes gripping. Sometimes you can drive but there appears to be a slight drag, other times its locked and the car jerks/shudders if you try to drive. The red brake light goes on on the dashboard and if you drive the warning notice may appear. Today our local Ford dealer said it needs a new brake vacuum at a cost of $900. They indicated they have seen this before and we should not drive the car. This car is 3 years old with 27,000 miles. This clearly is a dangerous defect. Ford knows this is a problem and should be responsible for its repair.
