The contact owns a 2010 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph, the brake pedal was engaged and the brake pedal went to the floorboard. The contact engaged the parking brake to bring the vehicle to stop. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic that performed a diagnostic that located the failure code with the brake booster and the brake master cylinder. Additionally, the abs was leaking fluid. The contact also took the vehicle to an unknow dealer that confirmed that the vehicle was not included in the NHTSA campaign number: 19v904000 (service brakes, hydraulic) and that the recall needed to be performed to fix the failure. The contact replaced the brake master cylinder himself however, the repair was not completed until the recall part was replaced. The manufacturer was not contacted or informed of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 130,000.
Had the rear brakes replaced at tires plus due to brake fluid leaking. They flushed the brake system and now we are getting an abs hcu (hydraulic control unit) code and the valves are not closing properly. When I googled this issue, it appears Ford recalled approximately 600,000 vehicles which included the 2010 Ford Fusion, however my vehicle was not included in the recall. This issue is causing the brake pedal to not engage. My son brought the car into a tires plus in duluth, mn due to the issue when he's driving.
Brake pedal has excessive travel; brakes will work better after initial pedal depression, no sign of brake fluid leak,not low on brake fluid, no indication of bad master cylinder. This happens whether the vehicle is in motion or stationary.
