By 47000 miles and many visits to the dealer they relented and i paid…

    Brakes failure at 20,200 miles. Brake booster and master cylinder failed while pulling out of garage. After stopping with the e-brake, several dash warning illuminated and a message of low brake fluid appeared. No fluid was found in reservoir and was sucked into the brake booster. Ford attempted to blame the failure on the after market charge air cooler. Truck is s 2014 ford f-150 platinum 3.5l ecoboost 4x4.

The pedal was very slow to return to its normal position.the next time the pedal went completely to the floorboard as if i was bleeding the brakes. After both incidents i took it to the dealership's. Both dealership's said they are normal after road testing my truck.

    Started at 8k miles. While sitting at a stop, the pedal gradually goes to the floor (sometimes). Most times it does not. Dealer mechanic verified it, called ford, they told him its normal!! Sometimes the truck will even creep forward. Ford told tech to do nothing. *tr
