| Description of the problem | On 02-09-2017 i was on my way home from work and when i was slowing down to stop at a red light to turn right on a two lane rural highway that has the max speed of 55 is when the brake pedal started to feel like it was pulsating and spongy and then it went to the floor and i had to push the pedal harder to keep it from going into the intersection. I tried pumping it to see if it would bring the pedal bake up but it never did. And the brake pedal stayed that way until i got it home. There are no leaks of any kind from the brake system and i was told at the dealership that it sounded like it was the hydraulic control unit because they have had people come in before with the same problem. |
