Description of the problem | I have had numberous brake problems for the past year. My brake pedal keeps going down to the floor. I have had the master cylinder replaced 3 times, the rear wheel cylinder replaced 3 times, i have needed a new front rotor and pads because only one of my brakes is actually working. I have also had my brake power bosster replaced and to still have the same result, my pedal goes down to the floor and i hope that i stop in time. No one seems to know what to do with the problem, they claim there is no leaking fluid and they just don't know where i am losing my pressure at. This has cost alot of time , money, and most of all aggrevation. This is my only vehicle and i have small children. Please let me know of any recalls or what to do.*ak |
