My vehicle was studied at a ford investigation about 4 years ago for this problem. I was told they were working on a solution and nothing ever happened. The employee told me that the…

The brake system's hydraulic control unit ("hcu").

Below there is a space to specify 'when did this happen.' I AM inputting the most recent date of this problem, but it…
