Consumer Description
MY 2004 FORD F-150 PARKING BRAKE DOESN'T RELEASE FULLY OR RANDOMLY ENGAGES AS I'M DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS MAKES THE TRUCK SHIMMY BADLY. I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS HAPPENING WHEN THIS FIRST STARTED. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER THEY SAID THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. IT HAPPEN A NUMBER OF MORE TIMES. FINELY THE PARKING BRAKE PEDAL CAME LOOSE AND WENT TO THE FLOOR WHEN I TRIED TO ENGAGE IT. I TOOK THE TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALER THEY SAID MY PARKING BRAKE SHOES WHERE SHOT AND I MUST BE DRIVING WITH MY BRAKE ON. I WAS NOT. I PAID TO HAVE NEW PARKING BRAKE SHOES AND DRUMS TURNED.ABOUT 1 YR. LATER I WAS DRIVE DOWN THE HIGHWAY GOT A BAD SHIMMING AGAIN .ABOUT TWO DAYS LATER MY PARKING BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AGAIN. AT THIS TIME I KNEW THE PARKING BRAKE WAS THE PROBLEM. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AGAIN THEY STILL SAY THERE IS NO PROBLEM. *TR
