What's wrong, in plain English
On certain 2022 to 2024 Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator SUVs, a front brake line can rub against part of the engine's air intake system and become damaged. This damage can lead to a brake fluid leak. Losing brake fluid can reduce how well the vehicle's brakes work when the driver needs to stop.
