Brake pedal became stiff and it was hard to stop without standing on brake. mechanic had to replace the power brake booster. nhtsa has a file # 10052836 and ford issued tsb #csp-13n02 to notify and replace part for only select cars. if you aren't in this group, you have no idea your brakes will suddenly be difficult to apply, resulting in accidents. *tr
At random times when braking the brake pedal will feel like a brick, with no power brake boost. it feels like the brakes would feel if the car were shut off, but it is still running. or at other times the pedal is very spongy feeling. in both cases there is a delay in braking causing a potentially hazardous situation. *tr

Within months of buying car new, i called five star ford in north richland hills. i was told that the noise was weather-related, high humidity. a few months later i took car in to have seats tightened and asked to have brakes checked as i was still have issues. again, told that it was weather-related. there was not high humidityi called one other time and told same thing. took my car to bevil auto and they told me about ford campaign notice regarding this same issue. called dealer again, gave then my vin, they said, "your car is not included in recall. anything else i can help you with?", i said no, he said goodbye. i was very disappointed in the way this was handled and find it hard to believe my car is not part of this same problem.
