Consumer Description

MY 2011 FORD F150 ECOBOOST IS MAKING A HUMMING NOISE WHEN YOU START THE TRUCK AND MOVE THE SHIFTER INTO A GEAR AND APPLY THE BRAKES., DOES THIS FOR ABOUT A MINUTE OR I REV THE ENGINE AND IT GOES AWAY. THE BRAKE PEDAL FEELS VERY WEEK THEN THE PRESSURE COMES BACK UP. I HAVE HAD THIS TRUCK INTO GATEWAY FORD IN GREENEVILLE TN SINCE THE SECOND DAY I OWN THE TRUCK. THE SALEMAN SAID THIS IS NORMAL FOR THIS TYPE MOTOR. THEY ALSO CHANGED THE SPARK PLUGS FOR A MISS I WAS HAVING IN THE MOTOR. I HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALER 4 TIMES ALWAYS GET SENT AWAY LIKE IM CRAZY ITS ALL IN MY MIND. DON'T KNOW WHERE ELSE TO TURN ANY HELP WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL. THANK YOU THIS HAPPENS THRU OUT THE DRIVING OF THE TRUCK
