Ford Edge brake pedal goes to the floor after brake booster replacement on Ford Edge

Problem overview

Some Ford Edge owners report experiencing a brake pedal that goes to the floor after replacing the brake booster, which may be attributed to several factors. A faulty or incorrectly installed brake booster can lead to a soft or sinking brake pedal. Additionally, air in the brake lines is a common issue that can cause the pedal to lose firmness, necessitating proper bleeding of the lines. Owners should also check for brake fluid leaks, as any leakage can result in a loss of hydraulic pressure, contributing to the problem. Furthermore, incorrect installation of components such as the brake booster push rod or brake pedal switch can negatively impact brake performance. Lastly, issues with rear caliper pistons or brake pad alignment may also contribute to a soft brake pedal sensation. It is crucial for owners to systematically troubleshoot these potential causes to identify the exact issue affecting their vehicle's braking system.
