Consumer Description
Spongy brake pedal while driving. Brake pedal travel almost to the ground when applying the brakes. Issue is cause by faulty hydraulic control unit. This problem occured while on a family trip on interstate US 95 while traveling at 70 miles per hour with my wife and children on board. The malfunction caused me to have difficulty braking and almost caused a major accident when a vehicle suddenly stopped in front of me. I was 10 hrs from home and was forced to travel back with the faulty, risky and extremely dangerous faulty brake system. The problem persists and I will be calling the Ford dealer on 7/7/2025 to have the problem fixed. There were also no warning lights to indicate a faulty hydraulic control unit that could had proven me from driving the vehicle on a 10 hr trip with my family in tow.
