THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT STARTED LEAKING BRAKE FLUID. BEFORE I SAW THAT I WAS PARKED, STARTED UP THE VEHICLE AND STEPPED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE. THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT LOOSE AND WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I THEN EXAMINED THE EXTERIOR, WHERE I SAW THE LEAKING. TO ME THIS FITS THE RECALL FOR THE BRAKES/CYLINDER, BUT MY VEHICLE DOES NOT FALL WITHIN THE CORRECT DATE OF MANUFACTORING. IT IS A 2014 FORD F-150 WITH THE 3.5 ECOBOOST IT HAS BARELY 80K MILES. I HAVE NEVER HAD A BRAKE ISSUE ON A VEHICLE BEFORE ESPECIALLY ONE UNDER 100K. I THINK THEY NEED TO EXPAND THE RECALL. I WOULD BE WILLING TO OFFER UP MY BROKEN PARTS FOR THEM TO LOOK AT. I WAS LUCKY THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND I WAS SMART ENOUGH TO GET OUT AND LOOK AS I NOTICED SOMETHING WAS WRONG.

NHTSA RECALL 16V-345 8/11/20, I ENCOUNTERED THE DEFECT DESCRIBED IN THE ABOVE SRREPORT. THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A SUDDEN LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID WITH THE RESULTING VISUAL AND AUDIBLE ALARMS. I VERIFIED AT THAT TIME THAT THE RESERVOIR IN THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS EMPTY AND THAT THE BRAKE FLUID HAD LEAKED FROM THE RESERVOIR. ADDITIONAL BRAKE FLUID WAS ADDED AND THE BRAKES WERE CYCLED TO ATTEMPT TO GET BRAKING PERFORMANCE BACK. 3 CUPS OF FLUID LEAKED FROM THE RESERVOIR WITH NO VISIBLE LIQUID ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE RESERVOIR OR ANYWHERE ELSE UNDER THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS LEAKAGE INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER. NHTSA 16V-345 STATES: 'OWNERS WILL BE INSTRUCTED TO TAKE THEIR VEHICLE TO A FORD DEALER TO HAVE THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER REPLACED. ADDITIONALLY, THE BRAKE BOOSTER WILL BE REPLACED IF THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER IS LEAKING.' SR 16S24 STATES AS TO REMEDY: 'OWNERS WILL BE INSTRUCTED TO TAKE THEIR VEHICLE TO A FORD DEALER TO HAVE THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER REPLACED ADDITIONALLY THE BRAKE BOOSTER WILL BE REPLACED IF THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER IS LEAKING.' TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A FORD DEALER (CLASSIC FORD OF COLUMBIA). AFTER THE DEALER COMPLETING THEIR EVALUATION, I WAS ADVISED THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THAT, THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS STATED TO BE AT MY EXPENSE AND NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL. I POINTED OUT TO THE DEALER THAT I WANTED THE MASTER CYLINDER AND THE BRAKE BOOSTER REPAIRED UNDER THE RECALL.

I HAD BEEN ADVISED THAT IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED WHEN THEY WERE WANTING ME TO PAY FOR IT. COMPLAINT: THE RECALL INDICATES THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER WILL BE REPLACED IF THE MASTER CYLINDER IS LEAKING. IT WAS. THE ACTION IS NOT DISCRETIONARY. FORD HAS FAILED TO PERFORM WHAT WAS REQUIRED BY THE RECALL PROGRAM.

MY 2014 FORD F150 QUAD CAB TRUCK WAS PARKED AFTER DRIVING TO WORK, APPROXIMATELY 20 MINUTES OF DRIVING. AFTER PARKING THE CAR, ANOTHER EMPLOYEE NOTICED THE COOLING FAN WAS STILL RUNNING (OR ENGINE-ON SOUND) AND AT THE END OF MY ~9 HOUR SHIFT, I RETURNED TO MY FORD TRUCK WITH A DEAD BATTERY, WHICH REQUIRED A BOOST TO START THE TRUCK. AFTER RETURNING HOME FROM WORK, THE COOLING FAN CONTINUED TO OPERATE WITH THE VEHICLE PARKED AND THE IGNITION SWITCH IN THE OFF POSITION. AFTER REVIEWING THE ELECTRICAL DIAGRAM USING A FORD MOTORCRAFT ONLINE MANUAL SUBSCRIPTION, AND TRACING THE COOLING FAN CIRCUIT, WE FOUND THAT THE COOLING FAN RELAY (HI-POWER FOMOCO, RELAY NUMBER O101K 8T2T-14B192-AA) IF LIGHTLY TAPPED WITH A SMALL SCREWDRIVER HANDLE, THE COOLING FAN TURNED OFF. THE AIR FLOW THROUGH THE COOLING FAN AND HEAT EX-CHANGERS DID NOT FEEL HOT IN TEMPERATURE AND THERE WAS NO OVERHEAT CONDITION WITH THE COOLING SYSTEM, MALFUNCTIONING AC SYSTEM, OR AIR FLOW RESTRICTIONS. A NEW RELAY (ONE OF EIGHT RELAYS [WITH THE SAME PART NUMBER] LOCATED IN THE BATTERY JUNCTION BOX - BJB) WAS PURCHASED AT A LOCAL FORD DEALER BASED ON THE RELAY NUMBER MENTIONED ABOVE. THIS RELAY WAS IN-STOCK. UPON INSPECTING THE OLD RELAY, THE SIDE OF THE OUTER PLASTIC HOUSING HAD A MELT/BURN MARK, SHOWING SIGNS OF OVERHEATING. THIS WAS A CONCERN, AS WHEN THE OLD RELAY OUTER PLASTIC COVER WAS REMOVED, SIGNS OF ARCING/OVERHEATING WITHIN THE BI-METAL RELAY SWITCH WAS FOUND AND THE BI-METAL PIECE WAS NOT PROPERLY ATTACHED. WITH ALL OF THE PLASTIC MATERIAL IN THE BJB, THERE IS A CONCERNS THAT THE RELAY COULD CONTINUE OVERHEATING AND MELT THE PLASTIC MATERIAL IN THE BJB, CAUSING FURTHER DAMAGE OR FIRE RISK IN THAT AREA. I HAVE INCLUDED PHOTOS OF THE FAILED RELAY. THE NEW RELAY APPEARS TO FUNCTION PROPERLY AND THE COOLING FAN DOES NOT RUN WITH THE IGNITION IN THE OFF POSITION AND TRUCK PARKED. NO RECALLS.

ON JULY 19, 2020 ~3:30P, I WAS TRAVELING ON CA 134 W TRANSITIONING TO CA 101 N. AS I APPLIED THE BRAKES THE PEDAL WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR WITH NO BRAKING EFFECT BEING INITIATED. VIGOROUSLY PUMPING THE BRAKES RESULTED IN VIRTUALLY NO BRAKING EFFECT. TURNING THE EMERGENCY FLASHERS ON, I THEN ALLOWED THE VEHICLE TO COAST TO A STOP ON THE SHOULDER OF THE CA 101 NORTH AND AWAITED FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. THERE WAS NO PREVIOUS BRAKING PERFORMANCE ISSUE, ANNUNCIATOR WARNING, OR ALARM OF ANY FORM TO SUGGEST A PENDING ISSUE. ONLY UPON THE ACTUAL FAILURE ITSELF DID A DISPLAY MESSAGE SHOW UP ON THE DASH. THAT MESSAGE READ SOMETHING LIKE "BRAKE FLUID LOW". AS I WAITED FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE, I TOOK A MOMENT TO INSPECT THE AREA UNDER THE VEHICLE LOOKING FOR EVIDENCE OF ANY DRIPPING OR LEAKING FLUIDS. THERE WAS NONE AND THE VEHICLE WAS OTHERWISE WELL MAINTAINED WITH APPROXIMATELY 60,000 MILES ON IT. I CONTACTED AAA FOR AN EMERGENCY TOW. WHEN THE AAA FLATBED TRUCK ARRIVED, THE DRIVER, BILL, ASKED THE NATURE OF THE PROBLEM AND I INFORMED HIM IT WAS A VIRTUAL 100% BRAKE FAILURE. AFTER HE LOADED THE TRUCK ONTO THE FLAT BED, HE NOTED WITH SURPRISE THAT THE VEHICLE HAD INDEED LOST 100% OF ITS BRAKES. AAA TOWED THE VEHICLE TO THEIR NEAREST SERVICE CENTER LOCATED AT 5451 TUJUNGA AVE, NORTH HOLLYWOOD (LOS ANGELES), CA. WHEN THE THERE, DAN, THE TECHNICIAN/OWNER IN CHARGE, SPOKE WITH ME AFTER HIS INITIAL INSPECTION, HE WAS SURPRISED TO FIND THE VEHICLE HAD 100% BRAKE FAILURE WITH NO EVIDENCE OF ANY EXTERNAL LEAKS. HE DID NOTE THAT THE BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY BUT THERE WAS NO LEAKS. HE SURMISED THAT THE FLUID MUST HAVE LEAKED "INTERNALLY" AND THEREAFTER INDICATED HE WOULD DO NO WORK ON THE VEHICLE, BELIEVING THAT FORD NEEDED TO ANALYZE THE FAILURE. MY 91 YEAR OLD PASSENGER AND I WERE LUCKY TO HAVE NOT BEEN THE CAUSE OF A MAJOR HIGHWAY ACCIDENT.

WASN'T SURE WHICH CATAGORY TO PUT THIS IN SO I PUT IT IN OTHER. WHILE DRIVING I TURNED ON THE REAR WINDOW DEFROST AND AFTER A COUPLE OF MINS I HEARD A LARGE BANG, THOUGHT SOMETHING HIT THE TRUCK BUT DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING. AFTER STOPPING TO PICK UP MY GRANDSON WHEN I WENT TO BACK-UP I NOTICED THE RIGHT SIDE REAR WINDOW HAD SHATTERED, HAVE NO IDEA WHY OTHER THAN MAYBE THE ELECTRIC DEFROST DID SOMETHING. LOOKED FOR SIGNS OF SOMETHING HITTING IT BUT COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING OR ANY SIGN THAT AN OBJECT HIT THE WINDOW. WHEN I WENT ONLINE TO SEE WHAT IT COST TO REPLACE I NOTICED THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING ON FORD TRUCKS SO I FIGURED I NEED TO PUT MINE ON FILE ALSO.

THE REAR POWER SLIDING DEFROSTING WINDOW WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO WHEN THE REAR DEFROSTER AND HEATED MIRRORS STOPPED WORKING AND IT NOW STOPPED WORKING AGAIN AND IS CLEARLY A DEFECTIVE DESIGN AS THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME CONDITION AND EVEN SOME WHERE THE WINDOW SHATTERS FROM OVERHEATING. IT FIRST HAPPENED AROUND 23,000 MILES AND NOW AGAIN AT 54,000 MILES.
