My wife had just began to press the brakes to slow down to go around a curve when she realized the brakes were not working, and the steering wheel would not turn as usual as all power was gone. She ran into the wrong lane of traffic on a split off road and was able with great pressure to get the truck stopped. She was very lucky no traffic was on the off road. After turning the truck switch to the off position and putting the truck in park, it started right back up. On 6/22/98 martin Ford tested it, but only replaced the wiring assembly and did find anything wrong. It has happened twice since then, but not as scary since it has been when we were slowing at traffic lights and going straight so as not needing to turn. But really noticing the extra strength it takes to stop the truck without power brakes. We love the truck, but are glad it is a leased, and we will be returning it in September, we are just scared that if those other Expedition have the same problem, there could be major accidents over it.
An electrical short circuit occurred in the engine F-3 compartment near the firewall, resulting in the vehicle burning. Please give any frther details.
