My Ford Edge 2007 prompts CHECK BRAKE SYSTEM fault. Within this period, I noticed the brake fluid dries up, pedal vibrates when pressed and braking efficiency reduced. I took it to mechanic who changed the booster after checking the pads and certify them okay. T
After this the SUV work normal for Two days but with brake system error still prompting.

I went for a second diagnosis, brake master cylinder was replaced and brake fluid filled up again, error refused to clear but car performance improved for few days. Just this morning I checked the fluid reservoir and was shocked to find it empty with no traces of leakage visibly. Brake pedal is still vibrating.

Please, I need a good advice or mechanic as I am currently in Ibadan.

Thanks all.

Sigh!

Ford edge legendary brake pedal going flat.

Terrible engineering.

Too many ugly stories associated with these brands of vehicles..Someone would pop up and claim they are as good as our regular Toyota/Honda. Most reliability evaluation are actually carried out on vehicles' first five years of ownership ..Even then, the Japanese come tops..But we have to note that most of these vehicles come to Nigeria, on the average, after ten years of use, meaning even less reliability and more parts needing replacement. Our struggle for parts and technical competence for certain brands of vehicles is well known. Even if tests conducted abroad suggest they're reliable, the odds are stacked against them here. Everything points to an uncomfortable ownership experience..

Is this problem related to the Edge model alone?

I am beginning to admire the Focus model 2010 models and above...

Base on your concern...I guess you are having leakage somewhere along your brake hose which your mechanic has not discovered and for the light on your dashboard you need to get a well certified Ford technician to run a diagnosis for you...which I can help you with one only if you are interested

I don't know about the focus. I only speak of the Edge.
