The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the brake hose and brake caliper hose needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact manufacturer was notified of the failure.

The brake pedal had a long travel before brakes would apply. I was not able to operate my vehicle without concern for myself and others since brakes did not react quickly. It required a flush of the brake fluid and replacement of the abs brake module. I believe this type of incident was part of a recall on the 2010 Lincoln Mkz. I never received any notice of a recall from Ford and had to pay to replace these defective parts.

Abs went off and now pedal wants to go to the floor before stopping. You can feel it grab right away and then fade away. This model has a abs valve recall but my VIN is not pulling it up.

Brakes lose pressure and go to the floor, as described in recall 19s54, but this car is not covered under the recall and the Ford dealer is charging $2000 to repair it.

After braking in an emergency situation the brake pedal has excessive travel which is exactly as described in safety recall 19v904000. I checked the VIN and this vehicle is not listed as being included in the recall but it definitely has the problem. I spoke with Ford and unless the recall includes this VIN they will not repair as a recall, but rather at my expense. I was travelling in the middle lane of a 3 lane highway going approximately 60 miles per hour and the vehicles in front of me braked hard causing me to brake hard as well. It was a rainy morning and the abs activated and I felt the brake pedal soften and go down about another inch where it still provided braking but I can feel that it is lower than before and there is a point at which I can feel the brakes but still need to depress further to achieve good stopping. This is the third time that this happened. Previous times the brakes seemed ok the next day. This time I can still feel that there is something very different.

After hitting brakes hard on wet surface the abs activated. From that point on the brakes would depress to the floor. Tried to pump up, but the brake pedal would still drop to floor board. At one point the car was pulled over since the brakes no longer worked. Had master cyl replaced, lines drained. Pedal still seems soft. I've had 3 different mechanics work on the brakes and all 3 did something different. Probably should have taken to the dealer.

There is a recall from the Lincoln Ford company for brakes which has been ongoing since 2019. They keep delaying the implementation of the part saying they are still in the testing phase. They are not giving owners the option for courtesy leases.

This is not a new issue, but my vehicle is subject to safety recall 19s54. Despite having known about this issue since at least December 2019, Ford has still not repaired it. I have checked many, many times with my local dealer who always indicates parts availability as the issue. This really needs follow-up. Pressure needs to be applied to Ford. Thank you.

One evening I got into my car and was heading home from work when I used the brakes and they went all the way to the floor. I had no brakes. The part I replaced was the hydraulic brake control unit. It cost me almost 700. 00 to repair. I have the proper paperwork if you need to see the repair order. Pretty ironic that the recall will be coming out but they say my car wasn't affected. I could have been in a severe accident. I am looking for reimbursement on the money I spent. Lincoln has done a great job with all other issue that have come up. Thank you for your time and I'm sure you will do the right thing and stand behind your product.

Brakes were intermittently failing to work. When they most often failed was after hitting a pot hole or small bump in the road approaching a situation to stop with the foot on the brake pedal. The abs system would kick in and the brake pedal would go to the floor losing pressure and braking. I have had several near miss accidents and have blown stop signs and red lights because of this issue. Had it in the shop several times to have it checked out. What I had replaced was the hydraulic control assemby for the abs system. A valve was sticking in the module that caused this to happen. I have kept the part. I have tried to contact Ford to no avail.

Mkz right side outer led taillight assembly is displaying all three bands of led's at all times, instead of only when braking. The correct display without braking is only the center led band. Also, at random times, the three led bands flash as if a turn signal is activated, when it is not. These conditions cause other drivers to not understand whether the car might be braking or turning, when it is only proceeding straight ahead. This is an integrated led taillight assembly that has no replaceable bulbs. The entire assembly must be replaced by a dealer at a cost of $500. 00 bulbs cannot be replaced by an owner, even in an emergency. The left side (driver side) outer led assembly operates correctly, with the center band of led's operative and three bands lighting only when braking. This adds to the confusion of other drivers following the vehicle. Ford motor and Lincoln division refuse to acknowledge a problem, and state that unless it is within a warranty period, no replacement will be made to correct the problem. It has been reported to Lincoln motor division for the past 18 months and the problem continues to date.
