I own a 2014 Ford Edge, when pressing on the brake pedal, it goes all the way to the floor and have to pump the brakes to make sure I don't hit the car a head of me. 5 minutes later it is back to normal. Or when stopped at a red light the brake pedal will all of a sudden go down to the floor. And now when I brake I get a high pitched wind squealing noise. Also the back driver side passenger door will have a door ajar warning on the dash and that comes and goes and could be dangerous for any passenger sitting in that seat.
