1 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 02/19/2023

When starting to drive 2 days ago multiple braking warnings went off on the vehicle, including advance trac warnings. The vehicle became extremely difficult to stop, requiring high pressure on the pedal. It was able to be stopped safely as there was an empty parking lot nearby. It was taken to a Ford dealership (tri-county Ford) and diagnosed with a failure of the abs control module. The part was confirmed by the dealer to be the same as in NHTSA recall # 19v904000 (Ford recall 19s54). Repair cost $1220, dealer advised calling Ford. I then called Ford who informed me that my specific VIN was not covered under the recall. There were no issues or warnings prior to this event. The worst part is that this is the second time such an serious incident has occurred with my vehicle which could have harmed or killed me or others. In 2019 the power steering failed spontaneously on the car while driving and again, the 2011 Milan hybrid was covered but not my specific 2010 VIN (I filed a separate NHTSA complaint and sent a letter to Ford yet there were multiple reports prior, and multiple similar reports since then, sadly). I have now experienced two major safety events with the vehicle. Thankfully I was very fortunate to walk away from both (at a combined cost of $3000), yet these should have been corrected by Ford and covered under recalls. I am an emergency medicine physician who takes care of people injured in motor vehicle accidents. Shame on you, Ford and NHTSA for failing to correct either problem and for keeping similarly unsafe and unrepaired cars on the road! make sure the correct vehicles are covered with these recalls and if not and additional reports come in, it is your duty to expand them to keep the public safe!.
