The contact's fiancée owns a 2002 Ford Expedition. The contact stated that there was smoke coming from the driver's side front end of the vehicle. The contact stated that while his fiancée was attempting to drive the vehicle the following day, the brake pedal was depressed but was firm, requiring the contact's fiancée to step on the brake pedal to drive. The brake pedal remained on the floorboard and was inoperable, causing the contact's fiancée to shift to park(p) to stop the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the speed control deactivation switch (scds) connectors had burned, and the brake fluid had leaked from the brake fluid reservoir. The dealer replaced the scds sensor and harness under NHTSA campaign number: 05v388000 (vehicle speed control). The dealer declined to perform repairs for collateral damages. The contact stated that he was an auto-electrician mechanic who owned an auto shop.

The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 163,745.

2002 Expedition 5. 4l - when braking, vehicle accelerates. Brakes were applied as hard as possible yet the vehicle accelerated against the brakes. This has happened 3 time before. Speed of vehicle ranged from 5 or 10 mph to 50 mph at time of problem. Vehicle has been taken to local dealer but no problem was found. This last time we almost rear ended another vehicle. Appears to occur only when slowing down for a stop. Will take vehicle to dealer yet again.
