Description of the problem	When driving at approximately 25mpg down a residential street, i heard a scrape and a slight thud towards the rear of my truck. I immediately started to try to slow down and pull over but there was a loss of brakes and i had to push the brake almost to the floor to get it to stop. I did get the vehicle to stop and checked around the car for the problem. My left rear brake caliper was hanging down and the fluid was leaking out. Upon close inspection, both of the caliper pins were missing.
