| 1995 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:POWER ASSIST | DROVE TRUCK INTO THE GARAGE, BRAKES WORKED FINE. NEXT DAY STARTED ENGINE AND NOTICED THAT BRAKE WARNNG LIGHT DID NOT GO OFF. WHEN BACKING OUT OF GARAGE, NOTICED THAT I HAD ONLY ABOUT 10% OF NORMAL BRAKING POWER. BROUGHT TRUCK TO A SLOW STOP AND CALLED LOCAL DEALER. TRUCK WAS TOWED IN. DEALER REPLACED A VACUUM PUMP ASSEMBLY, FORD PART F4TZ-2A451-A . PART COST $308.55, LABOR $101.99. HAD THIS TRUCK BEEN IN ITS NORMAL SERVICE, TOWING A 9,000 POUND TRAVEL TRAILER THE RESULTS MIGHT HAVE BEEN TRAGIC. I CONSIDER THIS A MAJOR DESIGN DEFECT. A BRAKE PART SHOULD NOT GO FROM 100% EFFECTIVE TO 10% WITH NO WARNING. DT |
