| Description of the problem | We were driving when the brake system warning light came on and suddenly we lost all braking ability. The brake pedal went down to the floor with barely any brake function. We were on a back road going over 50 mph and barely got the vehicle stopped. We got additional brake fluid as the reservoir was empty. We refilled it and began driving again. Within about 3 miles, once again the brake system warning light came on and the pedal went down to the floor again giving us very little braking ability. We were 30 miles from the nearest town.... We barely made it in to town. Our vehicle is currently with a mechanic (we asked for him top provider us pictures) as we are stranded over 300 miles from home. |
