Brake Light On Problems of Mercury Mariner Hybrid

Abs brake light warning came on. Brakes pretty much stopped working without any prior warning to the lights. Had to depress the pedal all the way to get brakes. Very unsafe. Now the brake is stuck on and the car doesn't move. Have talked to and read about several people that had the same issue. Why hasn't there been a recall yet?.

"takata recall" when I was leaving a store yesterday I noticed that my abs, brake light came on along with a description indicating my check brake system. I never noticed an issue with my breaks prior to these signals coming on and my fianc�'s car had been functioning well for the last four years. I normally drive the SUV so when I noticed it said that I made sure the breaks were working when I started to move. I did notice that the breaks required more of a firm push when I was needing to come to a spot. I didn't have any accidents or caused me to run any stop lights or stop signs. However, after doing my own research I did find out that this is a problem for the 2008 Mercury mariners and from some of the warnings I have read stated the breaks ended up failing after this all accrued and about got them into accidents. With the NHTSA already investigating the �2006-2012 fusion and Lincoln mkz and the 2006-2011 Mercury milan� models with the same issues, it seems the issue is bigger than just the Mercury mariner.

Heading west on the interstate I took the off ramp and came to a stop. As I was stopping a tone rang out, the abs light, and brake warning light came on. The brakes didn't feel as stiff as they should have but I did come to a stop as I wasn't traveling very fast while approaching the stop sign. I turned left and proceeded over the overpass towards a side road when a car that had come up the off ramp from the eastbound lane rolled the stop sign and stopped with the nose of their vehicle in my lane. I nearly put the brake pedal through the floor and had little to no brakes to stop me. I and made a split second decision to swerve around the car, driving in the oncoming lane as I was able verify there was no oncoming traffic. Once I pulled over on a side road I noticed the display in the dash read "regen brake disabled" I drove slowly to a small car sales lot with an auto shop and they researched for a few minutes and told me I would have to take it to a dealer to replace a hydraulic pump. They were able to fix the issue by disconnecting the battery for a bit but said more than likely the fix wouldn't last. Next stop is the Ford dealer but from what I've read tonight, many other users have experienced the same issue and have been quoted over half the book value of the vehicle to fix the issue. I was glad not to slam into the passenger door of the lady who pulled out in front of me, I was glad I had a clear lane to avoid her without having a head-on collision but I can see where this issue could happen at the wrong time and place and cause harm or loss of life for those involved. Because I had little to no brakes with the pedal pushed all the way to the floor.

Abs brake light came on, with regen brake disengaged notice appearing, hcu unit failed, seems to be a frequent problem with hybrid.

After pressing the brake peddle, the abs light and red brake light come on and the regenerative braking and power brakes fail. It seems to happen only when the outdoor temperature is over 90 degrees. Once it happens, braking requires a hard push of the brake peddle to the floor and stopping takes longer. It is indeed dangerous. My research shows that this is a common and dangerous problem. Thanks for your time, jeff.

Brake warning light and a message on the dash saying "check brake system" intermitantly occur. Brakes seem to work normally. Restarting the car temporarily fixes the problem, only to occur again in several miles. The problem occurs at any time, standing or in motion.
