The vehicle experienced a breakdown due to the drive train coupler failed, a part that has an active recall notice (Ford 19S38 ) (NHTSA Safety recall 17V-408) and the failure of the recalled part caused significant damage to other mechanical parts of the vehicle. The Manufacturer has agreed to pay for the recalled part but not the peripheral damaged parts. The damage is significant. The day of the incident, I received a recall notice from the manufacturer in the mail. The recall notice is dated October 2023. The manufacturer should be liable for the recalled part as well as the peripheral damaged that it caused.

My brakes are very soft. They have been bled and still persist to be soft and will go all the way to the floor. I have found many people having this same problem online with no solution. There seems to be a problem with the ABS system or something. It makes it very hard to stop suddenly. All of my components are in working condition and well maintained.

Break calibers hanging up in rear causing pre mature break pad wear and rotor damage. Caused breaks to wear down faster and rotors to get replaced.
