 Description of the problemThe car was parked in a lot. I started it, put it in reverse, and the check brake system warning message came up. The brakes made a loud metallic screeching sound when i began backing. When i tried to apply the brake, it was sluggish and difficult to stop the vehicle. I had it towed to a nearby ford dealership, where they replaced a brake switch. Nine days later, the exact same thing happened, this time at my home. The car was towed to my mechanic (not the ford house), who found a code in history indicating that the problem had a technician notice that states to replace power brake booster. He could not make the car duplicate the issue after clearing the codes, so i chose not to replace it. This part and repair will be over $800! When my mechanic called the ford house to find the code they used to determine that a brake switch was out, he was told they did not make a note of the code. My mechanic went on to tell me that i should still have brakes if this happens again, but they will not be assisted by the booster and will require longer distances to stop. Since there is a technician's safety alert already posted, this has to have occurred on other vehicles, so there should be a safety recall to replace this booster. Ford did change the booster used the year after my vehicle was manufactured. I also wonder if the ford house replaced a brake switch that was actually functioning properly when they needed to replace the booster. Since we have no code to refer to, we will never know.
