What 2014 Ford E-150 owners say
Brakes
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 Ford e-i50. The contact stated that the front brake pad was grinding the rotor and caused the steering to pull to the left and right. The dealer shaved the rotor and replaced the pads, but the failure recurred a month later. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where they shaved the rotor and replaced the pads again, but the failure recurred. When the vehicle was taken back to the dealer, the contact was informed that the vehicle was operating the way it should. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 11,426.
I only have 8000 miles on it, and the steering wheel is shaking when I touch the brakes. It also has squeaked from the day I bought it. I took it back to the dealer, they didn't hear the squeak. It is only when I back up.
