My wife and I purchased a Ford explore sport 2003 new from the dealer; on several occasion we had problems with what I thought was the abs brake system. The vehicle would continue to go forward after applying brakes. The Ford dealership replaced brake booster, master cylinder and it still today it continue to do the same things surge forward after two visit to the dealership with this problem. There response was we can't find it and sent us on our way. Now the warrant is gone and we are stuck with a vehicle that may or maynot stop in traffic which puts our lives and maybe someone elses life at rise. We really don't want to purchase another vehicle at this time; since Ford can't fix or locate the problem. I pull the Ford up to another vehicle of mine to jump the battery and it wouldn't stop and crash into my grill ;destroyed the front of my s10 chevy. However that I can fix. We appreciate any thing you can help us with.
While my son was driving west on route 64 in the left hand lane near rocky mount, nc at a speed of 70 mph, the brake light came on followed by a loud noise and then the vehicle pulled hard to the right causing my son to run a motorcyclist off the road to avoid being hit. I had the vehicle towed to a shop and the determined that the right front bearing assembly had failed. This could have been a fatal accident due to the sudden loss of control.
