This vehicle is a certified pre owned Ford. Brakes had just been replaced, including rotors, per the certified pre owned Ford guidelines. The rotors we never turned (scuffed) when installed so they made a creaking or grabbing noise. I told them to turn the rotors which they did and they are now fine.
Brake booster replaced, common issue so there is a 5 year warranty on this part.

Loud clicking when brake applied before taking car out of park that could be felt and heard in the shifter. Dealership had to order part to prevent getting stuck in park.
During left turns a clunking sound was heard (and felt through the brake if applied). The traction control light on the dash board would blink after these incidents. The steering angle sensor was replaced and appears to have solved the prob.

From inside the car, could hear a hissing noise coming from the brake pedal. At the Petrol Station brake fluid was checked and was below LOW. Brake fluid was refilled but hissing noise coming from the brake pedal has to checked by the Ford Dealer (no time yet to go, Chrsitmas, and New Years Eve). Car brakes are OK, except for the hissing noise and "hard" pedal feeling while braking. I suspect something wrong with BRAKE-ASSIST system.
