Consumer Description

ABS AND BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS LIGHT UP RANDOMLY AND CRUISE CONTROL STOPS WORKING. MAIN BRAKES STILL FUNCTION. I SEE LOTS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ONLINE. HAD BRAKES REPAIRED TWICE AND THE MECHANIC ALWAYS MENTIONS A LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID. EVEN AFTER THAT, THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. I DO NOT BELIEVE MY VIN WAS EVER PART OF THE SCDS SWITCH RECALL BUT I AM SUSPICIOUS THIS MAY BE SOMEHOW RELATED (?). IF SO, THERE COULD BE RISK OF A FIRE AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE. I'D LIKE SOME ANSWERS BEFORE I SPEND ANY MORE MONEY AT LOCAL MECHANIC FIXING THIS CAR. CALLING FORD DEALER TOMORROW TO SEE IF THERE IS ANYTHING THEY CAN DO. *TR
