I asked about talking to the tech, but they said the techs have to do whatever ford tells them to do--after reporting it on the hotline, they can't just test something suggested. Seems crazy but.....
Think it may depend on the dealership, this place keeps the service advisor between you and the techs.
Thats not a tech, thats a robot.
Air in the lines??
Just bought this gorgeous Ranger 2 weeks ago. Now the brakes are intermittently losing pedal, it goes almost to the floor and you have to stand on the pedal hard to get it to stop. Ford dealership has it and said they are replacing the front pads and shaving the rotors. Seems like this is not going to help as sometimes the pedal is high and it's easy to stop, it is like it is losing pressure. Anyone else have this problem? Thanks.
Evidently for warranty work, absolutely yes.
They are checking the wheel speed sensors, then possibly replacing the ABS module.
Hopefully yours will be problem free!
I cant believe thats what they want to do to fix the problem find another dealer with competent technicians.

they re-loaded the software for the ABS module, didn't help. This afternoon we called back, next thing they are trying is replacing the brake booster. Tomorrow or the next day the part may come in. I asked them to add a couple gallons of gas, on Ford pass I could see it is down pretty low (it was on 1/4 when they picked it up), they started to say it would be added as a cost, I said, what??? and then they decided they will check with the manager about it. Good grief, they have to run it around every time they make a change and it is not good to run it that low, they need to fill it up after all this. Sure hope this fixes it.
They are still waiting for the parts, some type of module (advisor couldn't remember which one, sigh) and the brake booster. I totally agree about the brake lines but these new ones are so tech heavy it is nuts!
