What Happened
Your vehicle's brake fluid level sensor might not be working correctly, which could cause the warning light to not turn on when the brake fluid is low.
Risk if Unfixed
If the warning light doesn't turn on, you might drive your vehicle with low brake fluid, which can make the brakes less effective and increase the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Ford will update the software in your vehicle's body control module for free. You'll need to take your vehicle to a Ford dealership, and they'll do the update at no cost to you.
