1 Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings problem

Failure Date: 09/04/2011

On September 4, 2011 attempting to apply my brakes due to a vehicle that abruptly stopped without warning my vehicle would not stop feeling as if the brakes were not gripping I hit the rear of the vehicle in front of me. Prior to the accident the Ford dealership changed the rear brake to include installing a new rear brake line kit stating there was nothing wrong with the front as they had not worn down yet. Not know much about abs I inquired about why the rear brakes were worn and the front brakes were still good, I cannot remember the explanation the service representative gave but I felt it was not right. Six months later my brakes donã‚t allow me to stop when an emergency arises putting my children and myself in danger along with the people in front of us had we already been on the freeway. I canã‚t say for sure if it was the front or the rear brakes that slowed the vehicle down but it did not attempt to stop coming into a downhill curve unto the freeway. There was no hesitation in the brakes no matter how hard I pressed them to stop. After having my vehicle checked at the body shop it was determined there is a problem with the abs but Ford is refusing to acknowledge the problems.
