| Description of the problem | I was driving on the freeway and my exit was coming up so i pressed on the brakes and the pedal was stiff and i could not slow the car down. Once the vehicle slowed down on its own due to me driving on a incline i turned the car off. Started the car and tried it again and i still had not power to the brakes. I inspected the vehicle and saw that the brake booster vacuum pump was leaking oil. I had to find a replacement part and install it. |
