I was driving my Ford Edge at approximately 35 mph. As I approached a stoplight, I depressed the brake pedal and it immediately went all the way to the floor with almost no braking action. I was able to get some braking by pumping the brakes continually, avoiding an accident at the light. As a local Pep Boys store had replaced the brake pads about 5 weeks earlier, I chose to slowly and carefully drive the car to their location. The brakes continued to require pumping for any braking action. At Pep Boys, I turned off the vehicle and went inside. They phoned me a few hours later to say that they found that the brakes worked fine. They found no fluid leaks, the master cylinder was full, and they could not duplicate any problem. I did a little research on the internet and found two reports of similar incidents at https://www.vehiclehistory.com/articles/ford-edge-master-cylinder-recalls-a-deeper-dive. The two excerpts read: "Brake Pedals Travel to the Floor "One Ford Edge owner reported that the vehicle suddenly lost braking power. The brake pedal pushed all the way to the floor, and they nearly were involved in a collision. After stopping the vehicle and turning it back on, the brakes began to work normally. "In another consumer complaint, the same issue happened. An independent repair shop reinstalled the master cylinder and manually bled the brake lines to fix the issue." I made an appointment with All American Ford in Old Bridge, NJ and dropped my car there on August 16, 2022. I was notified on August 20 that they could find nothing wrong with the vehicle. There was no warning nor prior symptoms of the brake failure. The brakes have continued to work since I turned the vehicle off at Pep Boys. No warning lamps or messages concerning the failure were displayed. I did come across similar failure reports for Edges that claimed the root cause was a combination of master cylinder, brake power booster and electronic brake control module, but my dealer was unaware.

1. Brakes failed, vehicle available upon request. 2. I avoided hitting the car in front of me and i was ok but I put myself and others at great risk driving my car as the brakes continue to fail intermittently. 3. Problem was reproduced. 4. I paid for 2 diagnosis and they are as follows; a) replace brake booster and master cylinder b) ABS module, this mechanic told me he replaced the booster and master in a 2013 Edge to no avail and has now been waiting 2 months on the ABS module, driver has no vehicle. He also has 1 other 2013 Edge with the same problem. 5. There was no warning indicators.
