2009 Ford Edge service brakes problems

“Brake Booster Failure. $947.45 to repair out of pocket expense. Thank God I was not injured or killed, nor was anyone else, or property damaged, as I was able to avoid a collision. There is a class action lawsuit over this defective Ford part.”

“When engaging brake pedal becomes very hard to push and having to push pedal all the way to the floor where it slows finally and then stops. It does not stop when push the brake pedal like normal. Pedal at the floor still not stopping then finally stops but by that time I could have ran into another car or through at stop light. I almost hit someone because of this.”

“Advised by mechanic that there are issues with the brake booster master cylinder that are causing serious braking issues. He's seen this issue in many ford vehicles of similar age recently. Said this issue is serious and can cause major damage to vehicle and safety concerns for drivers and passengers if brakes go out when vehicle is in use.”

“PEDAL WENT HARD AND DOWN TO THE FLOOR. CAME CLOSE TO REAR ENDING CAR IN FRONT OF ME. FROM WHAT I'VE HEARD THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND FORD DOESN'T HAVE A RECALL, ALTHOUGH THEY DO WITH NEWER YEARS OF THE SAME MODEL. VERY DANGEROUS AND THESE CARS SHOULD HAVE A RECALL.. IT'S ABSURD THAT A BRAKE BOOSTER SHOULD FAIL AND NOT HAVE A RECALL WITH A KNOWN DEADLY ISSUE.”

“WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND NEEDING TO BREAK THE BREAK PADEL WILL GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND ALMOST NOT STOP. HAD BREAK PADS CHANGED BUT THE MECHANIC STATES THERE IS A ISSUE WITH THE BREAK LINE HAVING AIR IN THEM THAT CANT BE RELEASED. THE CAR CAN NOT BE DRIVEN SAFELY. WOULD LIKE SOMEONE TO CALL ME”

“WHEN DRIVING THE VECHICLE AT ANY SPEED WHEN NEEDING TO BREAK THE BREAK PEDAL WILL GO TO THE FLOOR THE CAR IS UNABLE TO DRIVEN SAFELY AND COULD CAUSE A WRECK. WENT AND HAD THE BRAKES CHANGED TO SEE IF THEY WOULD HELP MECHANIC STATED THAT HE ORGINALLY BELIEVED THEIR WAS AIR IN THE LINE BUT HE STATED HE WAS UNABLE TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE AND KNEW THAT THE LINCOLN SUV HAD THIS SAME ISSUE AND WAS RECALLED. IF SOMEONE COULD CALL ME TO DISCUSS THE ISSUE THAT WOULD BE GREAT”
