| Description of the problem | I was coming to a stop, depressing my brakes and the pedal went all the way to the floor, failing to stop my car. I pressed the brake pedal again, the car jumped forward and then came to a stop. This happened twice today, neither time causing an accident, but came close to hitting a house and a gas station. *nm |
