| The parking brake will not work therefore i can not get my vehicle inspected. it goes up and down, no cables are broken visibly, but if you pull the brake it does not stop the car. it is as though the brakes are seized. clearly i am not the only one with this exact problem, and i almost ran over my wife when depending on the parking brake! how could ford not recall this part when they 'know it is faulty! the rubber is eaten up on the housing, and like the hundreds of 06 owners i have been reading about ford needs to stop charging people 500+ to fix this and do the recall!! *tr | |||

| Previously filed complaint odi# 10319368. parking brake will not disengage, passenger side rear brakes and rotor had to be replaced at the tune of $200. that was 4 weeks ago and it is happening again. google 2006 mustang defects and this seems to be a common issue due to a faulty rubber boot. i bought the car used from a ford dealer (it had 4000 miles on it and less than a year old. most places want to charge several hundred dollars to replace. vehicle has 31,000 miles, this is crap! *tr | |||

| After the unusually cold weather my rear brakes are not working as well as they were before. the brake pads have been replace 3 months prior. the emergency brake is now loose. now that the temperature is warmer,the emergency brake lever is still loose and it still feels like i am only braking with my front brakes. i have not had this repair yet because i cant afford it at the moment. *tr | |||
