Ford Motor Company recalled 123,611 automobiles after discovering that brake fluid leakage could reduce braking performance and increase stopping distances, potentially elevating crash risks, according to a document published Thursday by the United States Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
"The brake master cylinder may allow brake fluid to leak from the front wheel circuit into the brake booster," the agency specified the issue. The affected vehicles include specific models of 2017-2018 F-150, Expedition, and Lincoln Navigator.
