Description of the problem | Tl*the contact owns a 2005 ford f-150. While driving out of a parking space between 5-10 mph, the brakes failed to work. The vehicle was towed to a repair shop and the mechanic stated that the booster line failed, which caused the brake failure. The contact paid for the vehicle to be repaired. Shortly after, he discovered that the vehicle was recalled according to nhtsa campaign id number 08v208000 (service brakes, hydraulic:power assist:vacuum:hoses, lines/piping, and fittings). He went to the ford dealer and they wanted to replace the same hose that was previously on the vehicle in an attempt to repair the failure. The contact refused to place the same defective hose in the vehicle. He believes that the recalled item should be replaced by a working item. The current and failure mileages were 19,000. |
