I have not had a failure at this time. The problem is the brakes on my 2005 F-150. The pedal has always been mushy and engages the brakes at different levels when applied, I never where the braking will begin. Some times if I am parking a trailer where the brakes are used a lot the pedal will be almost to the floor. I did almost back into a car when parking because the brakes didn't engage until pedal was quite low.
: the contact stated while driving 10 mph the brake pedal was depressed and the vehicle accelerated forward crashing into another vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the problem could not be duplicated. No police report was filed however; a representative from the dmv filed a report. Update 5/2/2006 -.
When starting my vehicle in the parking lot it sputtered and did not start the first time. No problem the second time. After starting the second time I noticed the power brakes did not work. I turned the truck off to try to reset the system, still no brakes. I drove home very carefully using my entire body weight to stop the vehicle at stop lights. There would be no way to stop if I did not have plenty of room in front of me. I took the truck into the Ford dealer and was told a hose is leaking or has come loose behind the intake manifold. Cost approx 700. 00. I have contacted Ford for potential payment.
On September 2, 2005 vehicle skidded while coming to a stop. It skidded three times since then, twice while stopping at a traffic light, and while trying to make a turn into the driveway. Also, the vehicle vibrated. This happened intermittently, and t happened on dry pavement. Took vehicle to the dealer, they could not find anything wrong with the vehicle. There was no forewarning and there was no noise.
