Description of the problem | Vacuum pump for brake system and hose/tube that connects to the pump had to be replaced after i lost brakes completely while driving the vehicle with my two year old daughter in the back seat!! The vehicle had to be towed to auto repair shop. Mileage was at 55,096. This happened while in a drive thru line at chic fila. Brakes got very hard and i just kept rolling into vehicle in front to me. I stopped rolling just short of hitting the vehicle. I slowly went through the line to park the vehicle in the parking lot and the brakes were completely rock hard the entire time. I had to simply roll to get where i needed to park slowly. |
