There were no injuries and a police report was not filed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The VIN was not available. The manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 130,000.

The contact owns a 2007 Ford Expedition. While driving 40 mph, the brake pedal was depressed and failed to respond. When the failure occurred, the traction control warning light illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 109,000.

Brakes were applied and the brake pedal went to the floor and slightly vibrated. After initial application of the brakes, upon next application of pressure on the brake pedal, the brakes then engaged. No code or any indication by the vehicles safety messages were given, no check brakes or anything. There is a recall for abs brakes on the 2008 model dated November of 2007 and this vehicle was a late production run of the '07's and delivered on 8/28/2007 so perhaps the same issue affected some models from '07. Issue has been reported to corporate level @ Ford motor company.

Defective brake booster. Has there been any complaints about this.

Out of the blue the vehicle starts braking really hard, making loud banging noise, and shaking. It used to be once in a great while but now it's everytime I drive my vehicle ,sometimes I can't stop my vehicle. This is very dangerous in traffic. I've taken to the Ford dealership multiple times yet my problem persists.

On 7/5/10 my wife was driving the 2007 Expedition el with less than 17,000 miles, across the paved parking lot at her work place. With her foot touching the brake pedal she drove forward approaching a parking position. As the vehicle approached the parking position she did not move her foot to increase or decrease brake pedal pressure. When she is about 10' to 14' away from the car in front of her, the engine begins to change sound, revs up, she immediately has to apply brake peddle pressure to slow and then enough pressure to prematurely stop the vehicle. It's rear tires begin to brake loose, squeal, and spin. She turns the key off, to kill the engine. The brakes held firm keeping the vehicle stationary as was evident in the front tires imprint on the parking lot. The rear tires had spun, eating through the sealed surface of the parking lot, depositing rubber and parking lot material behind them. The vehicle was towed to the dealership. Again the dealership said they could not find anything wrong with the vehicle, and Ford would not let them do anything to the vehicle unless they could find something. This is the second incident on this vehicle. The first was complaint odi # 10347250. The first incident had property damage and vehicle damage. The second incident did not. - Ford has no record at the dealership of this vehicle being there for 3 weeks the first time and 2 weeks the second time. Ford rep also said not take this vehicle to another dealership.

The contact owns a 2007 Ford Expedition. The contact stated he was driving at speeds of 65 mph in heavy rains. He attempted to apply the brakes and the right passengers wheel locked, causing the vehicle to slide sideways. He removed his foot from the brake pedal and the wheel was unlocked. The dealer was unable to duplicate the failure and the contact advised that the failure would only occur when driving in rainy weather. The failure recurred while traveling at speeds of 25 mph in rainy weather. The dealer was able to duplicate the failure but was unable to provide a diagnosis. The dealer ran several tests and submitted them to the manufacturer who advised the vehicle was functioning as designed and would not provide any further assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 30,000 and the current mileage was 35,500.

We have been having sporadic issues with a grating/grinding/scraping noise and a bucking/jerking with our 35,00mile 2007 Ford Expedition el. No one seems to be able to pinpoint the problem (dealership, of course). I'm sure at 36,001 miles they'll figure it(warranty up). Help. I worry about the safety of my three children, as well as the expense of fixing it. When it occurs longterm (20+ seconds) , tapping the brakes seems to release the noise/hang up. You can also feel it in the pedals/floor when it happens. When the car bucks(not always occurring with the noise)- it really bucks. I have pulled over every time to check that I haven't blown a tire because I know I didn't hit a pothole or road debris and just to be safe. It is terrifying.

Symptom was low brake pedal or “soft brakes” due to the brake booster pushrod not being turned out to appropriate length requiring to adjust the brake booster pushrod length. In order to correct mechanic has to remove the master brake cylinder and turn out the pushrod 1/2 or 1/4 turn.

My 2007 Ford Expedition eddie bauer edition has always had a pulse on the brake you come to a stop and it will stop and go at first it was not bad now it is extremely dangerous.
