Thanks for the reply! I haven't noticed any visible leaks, but I'll definitely check the master cylinder reservoir seal more closely. Did your issue also present without any obvious leaks?

Indeed, my issue manifested without any discernible leaks either. After a thorough assessment, it was determined that the brake pads had deteriorated to a critical extent, necessitating their immediate replacement. Furthermore, a comprehensive fluid replacement was conducted to ensure optimal system performance. Given the complexities involved, I would recommend consulting a certified mechanic for a professional evaluation.

Thanks for confirming! I took it to a workshop. Turns out the worn brakes were indeed the problem. Got them replaced and a fluid replacement done. Cost me 480€, but the brake pedal feels normal again, thanks!

Hello! I am sorry to hear about your issue. I own a Ford F too, and I experienced a similar problem not too long ago. May I inquire as to whether you've observed any fluid leakage near the wheels or along the brake lines? It would also be helpful to ascertain if the master cylinder reservoir is properly sealed. These factors may influence the system's pressure.
