2022 Ford F-150 service brakes problems

“I was driving and went to press the brakes and the pedal went to the floor. The truck would not stop right away and then the rear tires locked up. Light came on the dash ABS, service traction control and brake system failure, this was a similar issue with the 2021 and 2025 model having issues with the EBB/ECU that was on recall.”

“My truck was parked on a slight slope in my driveway. I got in to move the truck to my normal parking space. When I started the truck I noticed the emergency brake was on. I put the truck into drive- the truck accelerated with my foot on the brake. The truck struck the corner of my deck and didn't stop until I hit the corner at my house. I had the brake pushed to the firewall and the truck would kept accelerating. Thankfully the airbags did not deploy. Significant damage was done to my house and my truck.”

“What happened: On [early July 2026], while towing a cargo trailer at low speed, the electric parking brake engaged unexpectedly. The brake continued to engage repeatedly throughout the duration of travel. Eventually, the parking brake circuit lost power entirely, which is when the repeated engagement stopped. What component failed? The rear axle wiring harness (part of recall 23S35). The harness had chafed against the rear axle housing, causing an electrical short that resulted in repeated unintended parking brake activation. The short eventually compromised the entire circuit, causing loss of power to the brake. How was safety put at risk? A towing vehicle with an unexpectedly engaged parking brake creates immediate risk of loss of control, especially while actively towing cargo. The repeated activations while operating the vehicle could have caused the trailer to jackknife or the truck to slide. This malfunction occurred despite a prior recall repair performed in Quebec under the same recall number (23S35). Confirmation: Both North Star Ford Duluth and Benna Ford Duluth confirmed the diagnosis. Ford Canada opened a claim acknowledging the failed recall repair.”

“Submitted the vehicle for recall repairs under recalls 25v315, 25v455, 25v104 and 25v517. Maintenance was scheduled to last less than a day. When I returned for the vehicle, I was informed the update had caused several module components to "brick." They informed me they had to receive authority from form to order new components and attempts another repair. I called March 17 for an update and was told the new components bricked again and that the issue was elevated to Ford engineering. Called Ford customer service and was given a case number [XXX]. Call Ford customer service March 30 and was told there is no update, fix or estimate of when a repair might be available.”

“Recall 23S35 is not showing up for my vehicle even though I have the exact same issue. Dashboard alarm and message "PARK Brake Fault Service Now" and it activates my brakes. I took it to the dealership while it was still going on, even after I shut the truck off.”

“2022 Ford F-150. The vehicle displays a warning message that reads, "Trailer Disconnected" continuously. It comes on as soon as the engine is started and comes back on as quickly as I can press the "OK" button to make it go away. I have taken the truck to the dealer for repairs four times so far and it still comes back. I have paid to have the trailer break control module reprogrammed as well as having a new one installed. The Ford web site lists this as a recall for the '22 F-150 but not for my specific VIN so it would appear the problem is larger than they know.
