2010 FORD FLEX. CONSUMER WRITES REGARDING PROBLEM WITH BRAKES *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED THE PROBLEM HE EXPERIENCED WITH THE BRAKES ONLY HAPPENED FOR A SHORT TIME AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN STATIONARY FOR SEVERAL HOURS. THE CONSUMER STATED THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS VERY STIFF WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS FIRST STARTED. ONCE HE BEGAN DRIVING, THE PEDAL WAS SO STIFF, IT FELT AS THOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS NOT GOING TO STOP, THE CONSUMER STATED HE HAD TO APPLY THE BRAKE VERY HARD AND EVENTUALLY THE VEHICLE STOPPED. AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 3/4 OF A MILE, THE BRAKES SEEMED FINE. THE CONSUMER HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS. THE FIRST TIME, THE DEALER STATED A NEW BRAKE BOOSTER WAS NEEDED WHICH WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO BE FIXED INITIALLY, BUT IT SLOWLY RETURNED. THE CONSUMER RETURNED TO THE DEALER AND THEY CONFIRMED THE PROBLEM. HOWEVER, FORD LATER STATED THEY DID NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. AN ENGINEER FROM CORPORATE THEN CAME OUT AND TESTED THE VEHICLE AND SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. *JB
