Brakes failed stopping suddenly at 70 mph nearly hitting a row of cars ahead of me pedal went to the floor increasing stopping distance probably 400 percent with very weal brakes. Brake light and abs inop light illuminated. Was able to drive car home slowly using hybrid electric motor brakes. Repair shop said brake control modual has failed this is a low milleage car unacceptable could get someone killed.
Abs warning light and low brake fluid light on. The lines and master cylinder were replaced and the brakes are in worse condition. Loose and poor response when moving and needing to stop. ## #vpic# 1 - check digit (9th position) does not calculate properly #vpic#.
While exiting from my condo parking garage, when applying the brake, brake lights came on and there was brake failure.
While in motion on a city street, the abs light, the red brake light, and the traction control light illuminated on the instrument panel. Brake pedal engagement requires more travel to engage the brakes. The vehicle was taken to a Lincoln dealership for repair. The dealer noted that the abs module failed. After a close inspection, it was determined that the abs module had failed due to brake fluid contamination. The abs module was replaced, but I'm concerned more with the apparent cause, which appears to be the degradation of the abs hydraulic control unit (hcu), where the abs module attaches to. The abs module should have zero fluid contamination. It would seem that the replacement abs module will fail from the fluid ingress contamination again. Please review attached photos and receipt. Thank you.
