 Description of the problemThe vehicle was bought brand new in corpus christ, tx back in april 2017. August 26, 2017, i was on my way to colorado and realize my break pedal would go all the way to the floor and suddenly lose braking ability simultaneously, which would be a disaster if an emergency brake is necessary in some situation. Fortunately, it happens when i was on a parking lot trying to get back to the main road from a short break. I did not take it very serious as there is only about 4500 miles on the truck, and the brake did function okay when you need to slow down on highway (i mean slow down, not to make a stop), but not until i almost hit a pedestrian in the neighborhood in denver. After that, i had to be very very very very careful whenever i need to perform a brake since i realize it was extremely difficult for the vehicle to make a complete stop even driving in neighborhood at about 25 mph. The brake pedal would go all the way down even when your transmission is at park. So i cancelled everything i planned in colorado and stayed hotel for 2 days until corpus was cleared from hurricane hazard. I drove the vehicle back very very very very carefully and sent it to the dealer the next day when i got home, which was thursday august 31, 2017. The tech identified the problem as master cylinder failure and got the master cylinder ordered and replace on september 8, 2017. I understand the dealer is very busy because of the hurricane, and i do appreciate the they manage to give me a loaner vehicle taurus to drive. However, the master cylinder did not fix the problem according to the tech and they have to order and replace the hydraulic control unit, which would take another 10 business days. I did some research online and saw other people having similar problems. I hope ford, if not, nhtsa could take this issue serious before someone got injured or killed due to this problem.
