| Description of the problem | Travelling at highway speeds. Low brake fluid indicator came on. Pulled over, topped off brake fluid. Had to purchase 24oz of fluid to get it to level. Drove another 20 miles. Indicator came back on. Added 12oz more of fluid and made it home. The next morning the brake pedal went straight to the floor. No brakes at all. No sign of leak anywhere. No fluid on driveway. Vanishing fluid? Not sure how my truck can hide 36oz+ of brake fluid if it's not in the reservoir. |
