My truck's hydraulic clutch system has failed twice now. Both of these times it prevented me from disengaging the motor and the brakes would not stop the truck. I was almost in an accident as a result of this both times. The dealership has repaired my vehicle both times at no cost, but my concern is that if this causes me to have an accident and kill someone, myself included, who then will be responsible? in my opinion this is a serious safety issue due to the fact that the defect renders the truck unstoppable. The first occurance, the truck only had 1200 miles on it. The second one was just recently at 20,900 miles. I've only had the truck approximately twenty months. That is ridiculous.

Previous failure (2nd) reported under odi#759329 on same subsystem -March 2002.

Clutch slave cylinder failed without warning. The clutch pedal went about 1/2 way before engaging. Difficult to engage clutch and shift transmission. I was towing a trailer at the time of failure. When I contacted the Ford dealer to schedule repair he said not to drive the vehicle very far because complete failure would probably occur. I was also told that Ford is very aware of this defect and has redesigned this part due to many failures. Even though an accident did not occur, I think a safety recall is needed since these vehicles are designed to haul or carry heavy loads and this type of failure could make it difficult to engage the clutch when trying to stop the vehicle, which could result in a catastrophic accident. The cost for repair was $305. 26.
