“I was informed there is a recall notice on this problem in august 2020. Nothing has happened since. I have not experienced any problems with my vehicle. I am just curious about when there might be a remedy.”

NHTSA complaint #11412796, filed 2021-04, 50,000 miles

“Breaks I tried breaking while approaching a stop light but my car refused to stop. Luckily there was nobody in front of me, but it took me about 2 or 3x the amount of time I'm used to, to make a complete stop. There's a hissing noise now when I press on the break and I have to put down a lot of pressure on the pedal in order to stop. I don't know if it has anything to do with the recall issued in november but this is dangerous.”

“Booster brake defect. There is a recall but my VIN # is not on the list. It should be. I had my car towed to the dealership for repair. The brakes delayed stopping my car. I could not drive it. My car VIN should be added to the recall. I am going to have to pay for repair because it is not added to the recall list but the problem is there. I should not have to pay for this repair. If my VIN is added later, will I be reimbursed ? When I press the brake the pedal is hard. The vehicle slows but does not stop when it should. …”

“2015 Ford EDGE with 45, 250 miles. I was driving along and went to apply my brakes. The pedal went to the floor. I was approaching a red light. I pumped and pumber to slow down. At that time, the brake light and the low brake fluid lights came on. I had no brakes. I had to pull the electric barking brake up to stop. I had to travel a little ways more and make a u-turn in the middle of a 4 lane busy , major highway, in order to get to a shopping center parking lot. There again no brakes - had to use my electric parking. I was so afraid. …”
