Have had 3 brake boosters put on in the past month. Still have a soft brake that makes noise. Replaced rotors on the front and turned the rears. Still have a soft brake that makes noise. The problem is still not fixed. Have to press brake pedal to the floor to get it to fully stop. Pathetic.

F-150 4.6L V8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 61,382 miles

The brakes on this truck have been problem since brand new. Have had them replaced now 5th time. Dealers do what they can. Replace pads, machined rotors replaced parking brake, then replaced all pads and rotrs. The front brakes seem to seize up every 20-30000 kms. Have all been replaced under warranty when I complained enough. You must document and make sure the dealer has been actually putting your complaints on paper or you have nothing to stand on when you are just out of warranty and they tell you that the truck has no brake problems in their system.

F-150 King Ranch 5.4L V8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 45,000 miles

I noticed the brake fade early on after say two years ,I thought it was just brake pads ,

I bought new carbon ones $65 ,However the same situation occurred,

I saw that a web site F150 forum had many people with the same issue,

Thanks Ford for NOT responding to this as a safety recall.
