Re: 2003 brakes?
Your Windstar is the same platform as the similar generation Taurus. I'm not sure how much the brake system changed for the 2003 model year, but I would not expect it to be drastically different in feel from your Windstar. However, if your Windstar has bad brake fluid or air in the system, then the brake pedal in your Windstar will be softer than in a vehicle with fresh fluid and no air. In that case, it's the Windstar that needs a brake job.
Is the concern that the pedal is firm to press, like it has no power assist, or is it that you press the pedal and the car doesn't seem to slow aggressively? During a test drive does the car stop well? Are there any odd noises during braking, or pulsations? At idle, does the engine stumble when the brakes are pressed?
