Brake pedal is soft, sometimes goes all the way to the floor and makes a hissing sound. Some break function is lost. We had new brake pads and rotors, and the problem persists. Our mechanic tells us that it is the brake booster. Safety is now a great concern as it is now compromised. Occurs when the vehicle is in motion, regardless of location on city street, highway, or turning.
Brake booster has failed, and now engine won't idle properly and stalls due to vacuum leak from the bad brake booster. I had reported symptoms (hissing, occasional hard pedal, etc. ) during service visits while my "bumper to bumper" warranty was still in effect, but was told it was "noise from the new brake pads" and it just needed the brake fluid topped off. Symptoms persisted, but then service bulletin 13n02 was announced, and because my car was manufactured 2 months before the dates covered in the service bulletin the dealership has still refused to cover the costs. So I now have a 2010 Edge that is not only hard to stop, but also now stalls out when it does stop!.
I have been experiencing a hissing noise when depressing the brake. A few times, the brake has been difficult to depress when trying to stop the vehicle. Brake pads and rotors have been replaced an is not the problem.
A loud "hissing" noise can be heard when depressing the brake pedal. Brakes feel "spongey" and require considerable effort to bring the vehicle to a full stop. I took the car into tire kingdom for diagnosis and was told the rotors and brake pads on the front of the vehicle needed replaced. This was completed only to find it did not resolve the problem. The manager contacted Ford and was advised there is a recall on the power brake booster for the make, model, and year of my vehicle. I contacted Ford to schedule the repair and was told that my VIN is not part of the recall and the repair would not be covered. When I questioned further I was advised the recall only covers "some" of the cars assembled at the oakville plant with my make, model , and year and that they could not cover the replacement of this faulty equipment.
