WHILE APPLYING BRAKES THE PEDAL TRAVELS EXCESSIVELY UNTIL IT CONTACTS THE FLOOR BOARD. AS A RESULT, BRAKE APPLICATION IS LOST. CONTACTED FORD ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE MASTER CYLINDER IS DEFECTIVE. THIS VEHICLE IS A 2016 FORD F150 WITH A 5.0LITER ENGINE AND EQUIPPED WITH FOUR WHEEL DRIVE. VEHICLE HAS ONLY 14,045 MILES. THIS IS ONE OF NINE VEHICLES OF EXACT MAKE AND MODEL WE EMPLOY IN OUR FLEET AND ONE OF TWO WITH THIS PROBLEM.

TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE AT 3,100 MILES. VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP. HAD TO PUMP BRAKES AS FAST AS POSSIBLE TO TRY TO GET TRUCK TO STOP. BRAKE PEDAL WEN TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESPONSE. WHEN STOPPED, HAD TO PUT TRUCK IN NEUTRAL TO KEEP IT FROM MOVING.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT ABOUT 70 MPH AND SUDDENLY HAD TO APPLY MY BRAKES BECAUSE A CAR IN FRONT OF ME STOPPED SUDDENLY AND WHEN I DID THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR BOARD AND STOPPED AS IF I WAS BARELY PUSHING THE BRAKES. I HAD TO PUSH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IN TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I ALMOST HAD A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND IF I HAD NOT SWERVED OFF THE ROAD I WOULD HAD HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AT CLOSE TO 60 MPH AND MY VEHICLE GAVE NO WARNING LIGHTS OR OTHER INDICATION THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG EVEN AFTER I FOUND THE ISSUE WHICH IS VERY TROUBLING. I HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO FORD AND AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION IT WAS DETERMINED THE MASTER CYLINDER FAILED WHICH CAUSED THE BRAKES TO NOT WORK PROPERLY. WHEN I ASKED FORD IF THEY REPLACED IT WITH A NEW PART THAT WAS NOT PART OF THE DEFECTIVE LINE THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THEY REPLACED IT WITH A NEW MASTER CYLINDER BUT IT STILL HAS POTENTIAL TO FAIL AS IT IS PART OF THE DEFECTIVE LINE THAT IS CAUSING THESE ISSUES AND FORD DOES NOT HAVE ANY OTHER WAY OF FIXING IT. I AM SERIOUSLY CONCERNED WITH MINE AND MY FAMILIES SAFETY IN THIS VEHICLE AS I HAVE A BOAT AND OTHER THINGS I TOW FROM TIME TO TIME AND MY CHILDREN ARE IN THE CAR WITH ME. I AM CONCERNED SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE INJURED OR DIE BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE BECAUSE I ALMOST HAD A VERY BAD ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AS I HAVE TRIED TO SPEAK WITH FORD TO GET A NEW VEHICLE OR SWAP FOR SOMETHING SAFER BUT HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET ANYTHING ACCOMP

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT ROAD SPEED (~45MPH) THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN APPLIED PROVIDED LITTLE TO NO BRAKING. THE PEDAL HAD NO RESISTANCE AND WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BOARD. THIS OCCURRED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE WORST OF WHICH WAS WHILE I WAS ATTEMPTING TO STOP AT AN INTERSECTION. THIS INTERSECTION WAS LOCATED IN A 40 MPH ZONE ON A SOMEWHAT BUSY STREET. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND PROVIDED NO STOPPING RESISTANCE. THE VEHICLE ROLLED INTO INTERSECTION WHICH CAUSED ME TO HAVE TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTION INCLUDING PUMPING THE BRAKES AND VEERING OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I DON'T REMEMBER IF THERE WAS ANOTHER VEHICLE IN THE INTERSECTION. AFTER THIS OCCURANCE I DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER WAS ABLE TO IDENTIFY A PROBLEM WITH THE MASTER CYLINDER WITHIN 24HRS AND THEN SPEND THE NEXT 17 DAYS TRYING TO OBTAIN THE PART FROM THE MANUFACTURE. SINCE THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS REPLACED I HAVE HAD NO ADDITIONAL OCCURRENCES OF THIS TYPE

WHILE SLOWING TO PULL INTO MY COMPANIES DRIVEWAY OFF OF A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY MY BRAKES FAILED. AS I BEGIN TO APPLY THE BRAKE PEDAL IT HAD LITTLE TO NO RESISTANCE AND THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH ALMOST ZERO STOPPING POWER (ON DRY SURFACE). I KNEW I WOULD DEFINITELY CRASH IF I TRIED TO PULL INTO THE DRIVE AT THE RATE I WAS TRAVELING, SO I TURNED UP THE SHOULDER AGAINST ONCOMING TRAFFIC TO REGAIN CONTROL. BEING VERY CONFUSED BECAUSE MY TRUCK IS STILL BRAND NEW I WENT DOWN MANY BACK ROADS TESTING MY BRAKES TO THANKFULLY HAVING NO OTHER FAILURES. ONE WEEK LATER IT HAPPENED TO MY FIANC WHILE SHE WAS COMING TO A STOP SIGN AND WAS VERY BLESSED THERE WAS NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC AS THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP BEFORE ENTERING THE INTERSECTION. A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER IT HAPPENED TO HER AGAIN BUT SHE HAD BEGAN TO APPLY THE BRAKES AT A MUCH GREATER DISTANCE AWAY AND THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE THE INTERSECTION. THE BEST WAY I CAN DESCRIBE IT IS, THAT IT FEELS AS IF THE FRONT BRAKES ARE DISENGAGED AND THERE IS SOME STOPPING POWER FROM THE REAR WITH NO LOSS OF TRACTION. I NOTIFIED MY DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. I JUST PRAY THERE IS A SOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE OR THAT IT NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN BEFORE ME OR MY FAMILY GET HURT.

BRAKE FADE AT SPEEDS 60MPH OR MORE WITH CONTINUOUS USE. 2.7 L EXTENDED CAB SPORT.

I WAS IN A VIOLENT HEAD ON CRASH AND NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THE CAB OF THE TRUCK FILLED UP WITH SMOKE AFTER THE CRASH. VEHICLE WAS DOING APPROXIMATELY 25MPH

WHEN DRIVING IN MORNING SUN, THERE ARE THOUSAND OF SMALL SPECKS THAT APPEAR IN THE WINDSHIELD MAKING IT EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO SEE THROUGH. PICTURE ATTACHED OF THIS CONDITION BY POINTING TRUCK (NOT MOVING) INTO MORNING SUN. WINDSHIELD IS ABSOLUTELY CLEAN INSIDE AND OUT AND THESE SPECKS ARE ONLY PRESENT IN MORNING SUN. FORD INDICATES THIS IS NORMAL ON ALL THEIR TRUCKS.

DRIVING IN PARKING LOT AND IT TOOK LONGER THAN EXPECTED TO STOP. THEN DRIVING ON ROAD AT 35-40 AND WENT TO STOP AS LIGHT TURNED YELLOW. BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. WENT IMMEDIATELY TO LOCAL FORD DEALER (1/4 MILE FROM THE INCIDENT). DEALER SAYS MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER FAILED AND IT WILL TAKE 4-5 DAYS FOR REPLACEMENT PART TO COME IN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WITHOUT WARNING AND LOST POWER. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER ONE ATTEMPT, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,900. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH AND ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A U TURN, THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY 25 TIMES IN A THREE MONTH PERIOD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER APPROXIMATELY SIX TIMES, BUT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,600.

MY 2016 F-150 HAS INTERMITTENT STEERING AND HANDLING ISSUES. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL INSTANCES OF TEMPORARY LOSS OF CONTROL ON THIS VEHICLE. THE MOST SEVERE WAS WHEN COMING OUT OF A GRADUAL TURN TO THE RIGHT AT 65 MPH. WHEN BRINGING THE TRUCK BACK STRAIGHT, I FELT SOMETHING SLIDE IN THE FRONT AXLE AND IT FELT AS IF THE RIGHT WHEEL WAS FALLING OFF. THE STEERING FELT AS IF IT WASN'T CONNECTED DURING THIS EPISODE, AND THE TRUCK DID NOT RESPOND TO MY STEERING INPUTS. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL OTHER SIMILAR EVENTS HAPPEN AT ALL SPEEDS FROM 20 MPH TO 65 MPH. THE STEERING ALSO PULLS TO THE RIGHT AFTER TURNS AND INTERMITTENTLY LOSES POWER ASSIST. SOMETIMES THE STEERING WHEEL CAN BARELY BE TURNED WITH ENORMOUS EFFORT, OTHER TIMES IT FEELS SLACK AND LOOSE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR THIS UNSAFE STEERING AS WELL AS A GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE RIGHT FRONT 4WD HUB. THREE UNSUCESSFUL REPAIR ATTEMPTS WERE MADE FOR THE RIGHT 4WD HUB, BUT NO MENTION OF THE STEERING SAFETY CHECK I REQUESTED SEVERAL TIMES WAS EVER MADE. FURTHERMORE, THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER HAS BEEN NON RESPONSIVE TO MY REQUEST TO GET A FORD REP INVOLVED TO CORRECTLY FIX MY TRUCK. I AM UNCERTAIN WHETHER THE STEERING/ HANDLING PROBLEM IS CAUSED BY THE DEFECTIVE 4WD HUB OR BY THE STEERING RACK OR COLUMN. BECAUSE I HAVE EXPERIENCED AN INCREASE IN THESE STEERING EVENTS, AND I DEEM THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE, I HAVE PARKED THE TRUCK SINCE AUGUST 22ND.

WE HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION WITH THE F150 BRAKES. SPECIFICALLY, WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED, THE PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR OF THE VEHICLE WITH NO DISCERNIBLE REDUCTION IN THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE. IN OTHER WORDS, THE BRAKES DO NOT STOP THE TRUCK. IT HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO 3 DIFFERENT DRIVERS OF THE VEHICLE. IT HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING - BUT NOT ALL OF THE TIME. ON AVERAGE IT HAPPENS ABOUT 10 TIMES PER DAY WHEN BRAKING. IT HAS HAPPENED EVERY DAY SINCE THE TRUCK WAS PURCHASED, IT HAPPENS ANYWHERE FORM 20 MPH CITY DRIVING TO 70 MPH HIGHWAY DRIVING.

PULLING TO INTERSECTION ON TWO OCCASIONS BRAKE PEDDLE GOES TO FLOOR. LIFT PEDDLE AFTER PUTTING CAR IN PARK AND BRAKES RECOVERED. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW IN JUNE AND HAS 7000 MILES. DEALER SAID CUSTOMER CONCERN COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHEN THE CONTACT LIFTED THE ALUMINUM COVERING ON THE BED OF THE VEHICLE, HE NOTICED A LARGE HOLE. THE DEALER ADVISED HIM TO COVER THE HOLE WITH PLYWOOD OR TO PAY FOR A BEDLINER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROMISED TO HAVE A REGIONAL MANAGER CALL THE CONTACT BACK. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 900.

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, VEHICLE'S LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE ILLUMINATED, VEHICLE'S SPEED DROPPED TO COASTING LEVEL AND HAD TO PULL TO SIDE OF HIGHWAY WITH NO ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHERE THERE IS LOSS OF POWER AND THE ENGINE WOULD NOT RESTART. OIL LEVEL WAS CHECKED AND WAS NEAR THE HIGH MARK. THE VEHICLE HAS 316 MILES ON IT AND HAD TO BE TOWED.

BRAKE PEDAL GOES COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR. TRUCK STOPS SLOWLY. INCREASED PRESSURE ON THE PEDAL NEEDED TO SLOW THE TRUCK. I PASSED THROUGH AN INTERSECTION UNABLE TO STOP IN TIME.WAS GOING ABOUT 60MPH AND ON A STRAIGHT AHEAD PATH. THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 10 TIMES RANDOMLY.

AT LOW SPEEDS (15-30 MILES PER HOUR) THE STEERING WHEEL GRABS AND LOCKS UP AND YOU HAVE TO FORCE IT TO TURN BY PUSHING THE WHEEL HARDER. JIM CLICK FORD DETERMINED THE STEERING GEAR BOX NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AS THEY COULD NOT GUARANTEE THE STEERING WOULD COMPLETELY LOCK UP.

I WAS TRAVELING PULLING A TRAILER CAME TO A RED LIGHT AND COULD NOT STOP, BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. TURNED TRUCK OFF AND RESTARTED PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR, PUT IN GEAR AND HAD BRAKES, VERY SCARY, DROVE IT HOME AND PARKED IT. FOUND OUT THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON 2013-14 MASTER CYL, NOW I AM WAITING 7 WEEKS FOR REPLACEMENT.

THIS HAS HAPPENED REPEATEDLY IN A MULTITUDE OF DRIVING SITUATIONS. GOING STRAIGHT, TURNING, DRIVING STRAIGHT DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 75MPH AND DOWN TO 45MPH.

AS I APPROACHED A STOP SIGN I APPLIED STOPPING PRESSURE. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT SOFT AND WHEN ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I HAD TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO KEEP ME FROM GOING INTO THE INTERSECTION. THE BRAKES THEN SEEM TO WORK. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALER AND THEY STATED THERE IS PROBLEM WITH SOME VIN'S BUT MY IS NOT ONE OF THEM REGARDING THE MASTER CYLINDER.

2016 FORD F-150 2.7L ECOBOOST MODEL WITH ONLY 3,928 MILES. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME ENGINE HAS CUT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING/ACCELERATING! WAS TAKING A LEFT TURN FROM SIDE ROAD ONTO MAIN ROAD. WHILE ACCELERATING IN THE TURN, ENGINE STARTED STUTTERING A FEW TIMES (RPMS WOULD DIP) AND THEN IT STALLED OUT. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO COMPLETE MY LEFT HAND TURN WITHOUT GETTING HITTING BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY. THIS TIME AROUND THE ENGINE WOULD NOT RESTART. HAD TO CALL FORD'S ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO GET TOWED TO NEAREST DEALERSHIP. THE LAST TWO INSTANCES THE DEALER COULD NOT PULL A CODE OR DIAGNOSE WHAT WAS WRONG SO NOTHING WAS DONE. THIS TIME THE DEALERSHIP HAS A DEAD TRUCK ON ARRIVAL SO THEY CAN'T TELL ME THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT (SERVICE AND DIAGNOSTICS HAS YET TO BE COMPLETED AT THE TIME OF THIS WRITING). I HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH FORD REGIONAL REP REGARDING MY CASES AND I AM TOLD THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING UNTIL THE DEALER CAN DIAGNOSE WHAT THE ROOT CAUSE IS. OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING IS WRONG. THERE ARE DOZENS OF OTHER COMPLAINTS OF ENGINE STALLING WHILE DRIVING.

WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL ? I COULD OF KILLED SOMEBODY.

VEHICLE LOOSES POWER WITHOUT WARNING DURING ROUTINE DRIVING AND CANNOT BE RECOVERED. WARNINGS ON DASHBOARD DISPLAY SHOW "SERVICE ADVANCETRAC" AND "HILL START ASSIST" ALONG WITH ALL ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS. PRESSING DOWN ON GAS PEDAL DOES NOTHING, MUST PULL OVER AND TURN OFF IGNITION AND TURN BACK ON TO RESTORE POWER. HAPPENS NUMEROUS TIMES AND RANDOMLY.

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE LEVEL TERRAIN AND A STATIONARY CRUISE AT 70 MPH, THE WRENCH ICON AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED WITH A MESSAGE TO "SEE MANUAL" AT THE SAME TIME THE ENGINE BECAME UNRESPONSIVE TO ACCELERATOR PEDAL INPUT. THE LIMP HOME MODE WAS NOT WORKING AND WE COULD NOT GET THE TRUCK MOVING AGAIN AFTER STOPPED. I WAS ABLE TO SHUT THE IGNITION OFF FOR ABOUT 2 MIN WHILE I LOOKED UP THE WARNING LIGHTS IN THE MANUAL (ONLY STATED TO SEE DEALER IMMEADIATLY) AFTERWARDS WE WERE ABLE TO START AND DRIVE THE TRUCK TO THE NEXT EXIT AND HOME APPROXIMATELY 4 MILES. THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS ENCOUNTER AND WERE ALMOST HIT BY 2 SEMI TRUCKS WHILE TRYING TO COAST OVER TO THE SHOULDER. WE HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE SINCE NEW AND HAD 8,827 MILES AT THE TIME OF THE SHUT DOWN.

I HAD JUST LEFT MY HOUSE AND REACHED THE MAIN INTERSECTION OF KELLOGG (HIGHWAY 54) AND OLIVER TO TURN WEST ONTO THE RAMP TO GET ON KELLOGG WHERE THE SPEED OF TRAFFIC IS 60MPH. I APPROACHED A RED LIGHT AND ATTEMPTED TO STOP NORTH OF KELLOGG ON OLIVER. AS I PRESSED MY FOOT ON THE BREAK PEDAL TO STOP AT THE LIGHT, MY FOOT WENT ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR. I COASTED INTO THE INTERSECTION AND DIRECTED THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE RIGHT TOWARDS THE ON RAMP. I WAS ABLE TO SLOW DOWN ENOUGH SINCE I HADN'T EVEN REACHED 35MPH AND PUT MY HAZARDS LIGHTS ON AND PLACED MY TRUCK IN PARK. I WAS CONVINCED SOMEONE HAD TAMPERED WITH MY BRAKES AND THEY WERE TRYING TO KILL ME! I FRANTICALLY CALLED MY BOYFRIEND WHO WAS ABLE TO CALM ME DOWN ENOUGH TO CALL A TOW TRUCK. I HAD ONLY HAD MY BRAND NEW TRUCK FOR LESS THAN A MONTH! IT IS CURRENTLY AT A FORD DEALERSHIP TO BE REPAIRED AND HAS BEEN THERE FOR ALMOST A MONTH. I WAS TOLD BY THE FORD DEALERSHIP THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM AND THAT THE PARTS NEEDED FOR REPAIR ARE ON BACKORDER. I RESEARCHED AND SAW THAT THE FORD F-150 TRUCKS IN 2013 AND 2014 HAD BEEN RECALLED FOR FAULTY MASTER CYLINDERS. I ASSUMED THAT BY NOW FORD WOULD HAVE CORRECTED THE ISSUE BUT CLEARLY THEY HAVE NOT.

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING HIS NEW 2016 F150 WHEN THE TRUCK LOST POWER AND THE ADVANCETRAC LIGHT CAME ON. HE WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY AND WENT FROM 65 MPH - 40 MPH IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. HE HAD TO NAVIGATE TO THE EDGE OF THE HIGHWAY AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED. THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED THAT IT WAS THE ACTUATOR THROTTLE BEING STUCK IN THE CLOSED POSITION. THE BODY WAS REPLACED AFTER A WEEK AT THE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN THAT THIS CAN CAUSE A AUTO TO REDUCE SPEED SO QUICKLY. THANKFULLY IT DID NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE THE DEALERSHIP REPAIR REPORT IN THE TRUCK. WOULD BE HAPPY TO PROVIDE A COPY.

THE BED OF THE TRUCK IS SEPARATED FROM THE SIDE WALL OF THE TRUCK , THIS IS AROUND THE FENDER WELLS, ALLOWING WATER AND VAPORS INTO THE BED AREA OF THE VEHICLE.

COMING UP TO A STOP LIGHT ON A SECONDARY ROAD, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR, BARELY STOPPING. I HAD TO SWERVE ONTO THE SHOULDER TO AVOID HITTING A VEHICLE STOPPED IN FRONT OF ME. PUMPING THE PEDAL BROUGHT UP SOME PRESSURE, BUT THEN THE PEDAL WOULD SLOWLY GO TO THE FLOOR.

MY TRUCK IS A 2016 F150 WITH 4053 MILES. THE VEHICLE HAS A 5.0 V8 AND 7 WEEKS AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE NEW, THE MASTER CYLINDER FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET AND THE SIGNAL LIGHT TURNED RED. I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND WAS NOT STOPPING, ONLY SLOWING. I DOWNSHIFTED THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND PUMPED THE BRAKES BEFORE FINALLY STOPPING. THIS OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. I IMMEDIATELY DROVE TO A FORD DEALER LESS THAN 2 MILES AWAY AND THEY CONFIRMED IT WAS THE MASTER CYLINDER WHICH OF COURSE IS NOT IN STOCK. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, EARLIER MODELS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE. APPARENTLY, FORD HAS NOT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION!

ENGINE AT NORMAL OPERATING TEMP. DRIVING AT 45- 50 MPH LOST ACCELERATOR PEDAL SEVERAL DASH WARNING LIGHTS ALL CAME ON AND AND TRUCK ONLY WOULD IDLE.PUSHING ON THE ACCELERATOR DID NOTHING, HAD TO PUT ON HAZARD FLASHERS AND IDLE TO SAFE PLACE TO PULL OFF HIGHWAY. CALLED TOW TRUCK TO TOW TO DEALER FOR REPAIR. DEALER REPLACED THROTTLE BODY .
