| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Full-size bronco pulls hard left (into oncoming traffic lane) upon braking. worse on hard braking but occurs at all speeds. brakes were just replaced by dealer 6 weeks ago - same thing. dealer said there is tsb advising to swap wheels and brake pads. it reduced problem, but left pull still bad enough to pull vehicle into oncoming traffic upon hard braking - unsafe. driver must steer right to maintain straight course upon all types of braking. ford and nhtsa knows about this safety issue - does someone have to die to get a real fix? this truck is huge and it may be innocent victim gets hit in head-on collision. please review and see if there is a real fix, not swapping disk pads to mask the real design flaw issue. *ak |
