My brakes failed on me this weekend.
No warning , pedal went to the floor.
I got one of the kids to pump the pedal as I held the front hose to the
caliper, I could feel it jump a bit.
It won't pump up pressure, I have NO leaks, the master was rebuilt a year
ago and the fluid was replaced with silicone.
I know these things fail but in the past most of the LBC's that I have owned
it was a progressive thing.
This is the first time I have had one just completely go all the way out on
me.
For about two days prior to the failure I was getting an intermittent squeal
from the front disks.
The car is a toy and is driven rarely.
I have less than one year on the rear brakes, front pads are fine.
What would cause this ?
>From excellent to nothing ! ?
