So if your stuff fails now, they just replace it with the same faulty part and when the new items are released they are going to replace them again?

My MC does not appear to be leaking, the brake fluid level is just below the "full" mark on the reservoir. I have noticed an inconsistent pedal feel with this truck, and then I read about this...

I'm supposed to drive from Michigan to Florida a week from Saturday, and come home two weeks later, pulling a boat through the mountains both ways. I do not have confidence in my truck right now...

no that's not the case. If you do get the brake warning light you take it to a ford dealer, they contact hotline and then they get a part out to them or pay to put you in a rental
