Description & Operation: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Ford Mustang, 2003 Ford Mustang, and 2002 Ford Mustang. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The 2002-04 Mustang is equipped with a vacuum-assisted or a hydro-boost power braking system. The braking system is a front-to-rear split hydraulic system. The front wheel brakes utilize a dual piston brake caliper and disc brake system. The rear brakes utilize a single piston brake caliper and disc brake system. The parking brake system is a mechanical system that is controlled by an independent hand-operated parking brake control and is self-adjusting. A 4-wheel Anti-Lock Brake System (4WABS) or anti-lock brake system with traction control is optional equipment on all models except Cobra. Cobra has ABS and traction control as standard equipment.
