Brakes going to the floor twice, almost unable to stop the second time - almost crashed. This vehicle-€™s brakes were recalled per Ford. Cleveland Ford dealer in Cleveland TN agreed to fix it, then changed their minds a couple days later and said they weren-€™t required to fix it because they couldn-€™t replicate the problem. Mountain View Ford in Chattanooga agreed today to fix it, taking it there tomorrow. We-€™ll see.

I am here to report a complaint as to Lasco Ford Lasco Ford on 2525 Owen Road Fenton, MI 48430 holding my daughter's vehicle for several days to fix 2 recalls. She is 19 and they seem to be trying to take advantage of her in telling her other things that need repair rather than just fixing the recalls. Now they are saying she needs to pay a diagnostic fee to get her car back now that she will not spend the $1000 to repair everything, they say she needs.

Two recalls one on drivers air bag. An one on the brakes! don't want to drive because last time they told me to park it on the passenger air bag. Recall is for the same injury or death! brakes R having to push all the way to the floor sometimes to stop. Afraid it will one time not stop all together. They tell me they can do nothing because no parts. What's can I do?

My [xxx] vehicle is under two recall notices. One is for faulty brakes, the other for a faulty driver's side airbag. I believe the NHTSA needs to carefully consider the consequences of this combination of defects. Right when you need the ABS protection the system could fail potentially causing a crash and airbag deployment. This could kill the driver and others in the car. Unlike the passenger side airbag recall, this deadly combination renders the vehicle unsafe to drive. Recommend NHTSA order fomoco to provide suitable alternate transportation to affected car owners until recall repairs can be effected.

I have to press my brakes excessively to get them to work and this is becoming a safety issue. Recall 19S54 was issued back in December 2019 and there is still no fix. I have not been in an accident yet but now there is snow and ice and makes it even more difficult to stop.

I have received 2 notices from Ford date 1/2020 AN10/20, each advising of a recall regarding the brakes. Each time, the parts are not in and I must continue to drive a vehicle that is totally unsafe. Sometimes when I hit the brakes, the pedal goes straight to the floor like there is an air pocket. I am concerned about my safety and the safety of others should these brakes fail

We had a problem with our vehicle stopping in a safe way, as stopping was delayed which almost resulted in a auto accident. We took it to our local mechanic for repair and inspection as we were concerned there was an issue with the safety of the brakes. Our mechanic notified us there was a recall, however parts were not available. He found a used part and repaired the issue. We took the receipt and recall notice to our local Ford dealer who notified they could not refund us for the repair until the part was available. The part is still not available. 1/28/20

I noticed this vehicle has four different recalls on it and I want to check and see if it's in the records that the recalls were properly addressed and carried out on this car or if it still hasn't been done yet.

Continuing phone call ref.# 326373:(did not have all information in front of me to continue). 12/12/2019 took car to Firestone tire and automotive and wanted them to check my brakes because something was not right with them. The put new brakes and rotors on front and back. Problem was car was hesitant in stopping, then would "grab." While driving, if I had to use brakes, car would not immediately resume speed after brakes released. RPM's go way up, mpg drops to "0, " then car accelerates. It is very hesitant in picking speed back up. Twice I took car to shop to have them check it out.(4/13/20 and 9/1/20) could not find anything. No problem came up on computer. No engine light. I believe recall #19S54/NHTSA 19V-904 responsible. Received recall notice January 2020. I have called local Ford dealership to see if parts available to fix and was told (also on website) they would be available probably last part of first quarter of 2020. Now last part of third quarter and no parts. Afraid car will "stall" in traffic and cause accident.

Brake failure when trying to stop at any speed including city or highway. When pushing down on pedal to slow down or stop the pedal continues to go down to floor and feels like brake pedal pulses and makes a odd noise like a gurgling and air leaking and when pumped a few times the pedal comes back to normal and I dont think it would stop if the vehicle was needing to stop in a hurry
