Extreme brake dust on both front wheels / rims. Concerned that brake pad friction lining was manufactured incorrectly, and worried about possible brake fade. Currently 4,800 miles on vehicle.
The overall braking performance on my new Escape has left me very concerned about the safety and dependability of my brakes. The brakes are unreasonably loud and down right startling, especially at low speeds. They often times feel, react, and sound as if they are wet; even when they are bone dry. My brakes will often times stop the vehicle abruptly and feel too grabby while making a loud noise. The brakes are also producing an excessive amount of brake dust on the wheels. I had my vehicle checked out by a Ford dealer, and they confirmed this is "normal" for this type of vehicle and that no fix is currently available. A simple internet search revealed many others who are experiencing the same problem. Something is really not right here.
