Ford Motor Company is recalling 225,012 model year 2013-2014 F-150s manufactured August 1, 2013, to August 31, 2014 equipped with 3.5L engines.
The master cylinder rear cup seal may roll, resulting in brake fluid leakage from the primary reservoir into the brake booster.
Loss of brake fluid from the primary reservoir results in a complete loss of front brake function, increasing the risk of a crash.
What to do
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake master cylinder and, if necessary, the brake booster, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on July 11, 2016.
Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 16S24.
