Broken master cyl bolts???

Hi Everyone,
Thought I'd check and see if anyone has had this happen.
I'm new to the superduty thing, and I just bought a 2003 f350 c/c 7.3 4wd. Coming back rom the desert the other day, I go to put the truck in low range, push on the brakes and snapped off both bolts that hold the master cylinder on. I know what your thinking, I pushed too hard but that's not the case, the peddle just went to the floor pushed the cylinder forward and bent the rod from the booster to the master. I can't find a recall on this or am I just not looking hard enough? I managed to straighten the rod and find some bolts to put it back together and made it home ok. I will say that it did kinda scare me with a camper and trailer in tow. So has it happend to you?
