Narrative

The brakes stopped working and I hit my office trailer this morning and almost one of the workers on the jobsite. I didn't do any damage to the trailer or the body of my truck due to the low speed I was traveling. I have been working on cars my whole life and although I am not a certified auto mechanic I am 100% positive that the fluid from the master cylinder has leaked into the booster. Before I arrived to my jobsite the Brake light came on due to the brake fluid reservoir being empty. There is already a recall for this very dangerous failure and it should be fords responsibility to make my truck safe just like others with the Same Exact Make, Models, Years and issues.
