I have a 2001 E 1-50 van, I am always getting a brake to the floor issue this has caused me some scary incidents at times, I have had everything replaced that I can think of but still having this issue, I get the run around with Ford saying this is normal to me this is not normal when I have to pump my brakes at times, before I stop also sitting at lights I can feel my pedal goes to the floor this is not normal something is wrong, somewhere other people have had this issue cause I tried to see if anyone else is having this seems a lot are here are some stories on this issue www.Ford-trucks.com/forums/937993-my-brakes-go-to-the-floor-and-so-do-yours-I-think.html I'm tired of tossing money into this issue, I don't want to get into a accident and kill myself or someone else, I think this problem needs to be addressed. I'm sure not the only one having this issue.

Have had the vehicle since late 2001 within 5 months had to be taken in for brake problems due to vibration when stopping. Since then the van has had the rotors replaced once a year with them being turned twice. Brake pads are needing to be replaced every 5 to 6 months. I have called Ford each time as well as the dealer. Both have said that this is a common problem they have with these vehicles. I don't pull anything with my van and I am not hard on the brakes. They told me it was because the front end is heavy.
