The power brake booster is driven by a custom Ford bolt driven by the camshaft. This bolt failed with the result that it was extremely hard to stop the vehicle with both feet on the brake pedal. I looked online for advice and found this is a very common failure. Then while trying to get a replacement bolt, every Ford dealer in North America that I contacted has them on back order so this is an extremely common failure.Obviously anyone around one of these vehicles are at risk when this part fails which is very clearly a common occurrence. This happens with no warning at all.

My Ford Fusion hybrid is no longer safe to drive. I keep it parked in front of my work. I’ve had 2 Mechanics I know personally look at it and they both say the break line is cracked and is spraying out break fluid. I was driving in a stormy day and all of the sudden the break light, traction control light, slippery roads light, abs light, and advance service tech appeared. All at once I knew to drive slow and safe since I had no traction control. I restarted my car and all the lights disappeared. Than as I’m driving the next day, Low break fluid was on the screen but for only a second. And it did that every time I would hit the break. So I bought break fluid and filled it up. I pressed on the breaks many times and turned the wheel to the left so I can look in the wheel well I noticed the leak and immediately knew I needed to get it serviced. I unfortunately don’t have the money and it is gonna remain in front of my work till I can figure out what to do. I looked online to find solutions and found some recalls but when I looked up my vin it didn’t show up for my car. I can attach the recalls I found that look like they are for this issue. Please put add this to the recall list.
