Brakes failing! vehicle will stop on initial depression of brake pedal. Condition arises when once at a complete stop after initiating a braking event, if pedal is released and then re-depressed, the pedal will go to the floor and the vehicle will not stop. Condition is intermittent, but guaranteed to happen.
My wife had a total brake failure (pedal went to the floor, no warning lights or any prior problems) as a result of which she went through a red light. She rolled to the side of the road where she shut everything off. When she restarted the brakes worked fine. Ford deler says a $1454 new hcu unit may fix the problem. No other diagnosis even though brake system was thoroughly examined.
The brake pedal had excessive travel. When pressure was applied to slow the vehicle, the pedal would not hold steady, but would drift to the floor. The vehicle would slow down and stop, but when slowing from a relatively high speed, it was necessary to "pump" the brake pedal. One would have to wonder if total brake failure would eventually occur. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for repair. It was in the shop for several days, as no reason for the problem could be determined. Eventually they contacted Ford for technical assistance in diagnosing the problem. According to their tests, the problem was with the hydraulic control module, which was bypassing brake fluid internally, and it was replaced. While it has only been a few days since the repair, the brake performance is much improved. I checked online and see that there have been problems with Ford fusions and Mercury Milans having brake failure. I believe that this is a serious problem that could result in injury or death. Drivers of my vehicle, even after repair, anticipate potential brake problems when we drive.
It first started with the passenger rear tail light. The led brakelight failed, led lights are known to last for 20+ years and these lasted about four. After that a bulb went out, when the bulb was replaced it still didn't resolve the issue. There are two components to the tail light, an inner light attached to the rear trunk and a outer light on the actual rear body. First, the inner passenger went out, then the inner driver's and then the outside passenger. Now finally, the outside driver's side has started flickering. Doing minor google searches immediately returns results with other vehicles having the same problem.
