This usually means that the brake pads are wearing down- you may also notice that she doesn't respond so well to braking either. For safety's sake (your own, your cars', and other motorists & pedestrians) get the brake shoes changed as soon as possible.

What makes the clicking noise when the 2003 Ford Escape is in park with pressing the brake?

Apply the parking brake,but not the driving brake, is the noise there? apply the brake,if the noise is only present when the brake is applied I would assume it is the anti-lock brake system. Get your VIN # of the vehicle and call a ford dealer and give them the # and ask if there are recalls for your vehicle. There are a few for this one but it depends on the vin. There is a anti-lock brake recall, but as I said it depends on where it was made if it falls under the recall.

pulsating effect The Abs equipped cars do this naturally older cars with abs you will notice it more so than newer models..
