Each component in detail
What the reports in each category say, in the owners' own words
Brakes
Reports naming service brakes, the antilock braking system, brake hoses, master cylinders or the parking brake.
From owner reports, verbatim
A recall had been done and thought to be corrected earlier this year, but we just heard a pop as we were pulling into our driveway and I immediately lost power steering and brakes stopped working seconds later. The connection to the Dot 4 tank came undone and all the fluid leaked out. If this had happened while we were driving down the highway I hate to think what could have happened. I am fearful to drive this RV in the future if the recall was fixed and it failed anyway. AAA will be towing the RV to the closest Ford Dealership today for repair. I had no warning lights, messages, or other symptoms prior to the failure.
