NHTSA Complaint #10185594 — 2006 FORD EXPEDITION

FRONT ROTORS TURNED BY DEALER SEVERAL WEEKS PRIOR DUE TO VIBRATION WHEN STOPPING. SAME PROBLEM RETURNED AND DEALER THIS TIME REPLACED ROTORS AND CALIPERS. NOW BRAKES FEEL WEAK, AND TRAVEL OF PEDAL HAS INCREASED BEFORE BRAKES ENGAGE. DEALER CLAIMS THIS IS WITHIN NORMAL OPERATION . DEALER CLAIMS NEW CALIPERS HAVE LARGER PISTON SO THIS IS REASON FOR INCREASED PEDEL TRAVEL AND DIFFERENT FEEL OF BRAKES ? BRAKES DO NOT FEEL AS IF STOPPING VEHICLE AS BEFORE PROBLEM BEGAN . RETURNED AGAIN TO ASK DEALER 3-19-07 TO BLEED SYSTEM DUE TO SOFT PEDAL AND CONCERN. SYSTEM BLED MANUALLY THIS TIME AND PEDAL GOT SOME WHAT BETTER . STILL NOT AS FIRM AS WHEN PROBLEM STARTED. PEDAL TRAVEL INCREASE IS STILL PRESENT BEFORE BRAKES ENGAGE. VEH DOES NOT STOP AS WELL AS BEFORE PROBLEM BEGAN .
