I have a 2005 Ford Escape. There is a ''hissing'' sound that comes from behind the steering panel that stops when I touch the brakes. Any clue what this might be? Thanks,

I can hear a hissing noise coming from the brake pedal on my 2002 Ford Escape. Its been there for a little while. Sometimes the brakes doesn't work properly, it feels a little spongy sometimes. But usually...
It sounds like the rubber diaphragm in the brake booster has developed a leak producing the hissing / sucking noise. The only option is to replace the booster as a complete assembly as they need specialist tools to repair. If the booster fails completely you will still have brakes but the pedal will be very hard and it will take a lot of muscle power to stop vehicle. Best to have booster replced soon before you experience situation described above.

Hissing sound on the drivers side. Goes away when you hit the brake.
I have had the same problem with my 05 Escape and it was actually the rubber boot behind the brake pedal that was torn if I started the car and pressed down on the brake with my hand and let it up I could feel the air coming off of the boot.

2005 Ford Escape Hissing sound
The power brake booster has a bad valve. I can't suggest where to find a new valve for it, but you can buy a rebuilt replacement. They are usually not hard to put on.
