| Description of the problem | When applying brake during driving, brake pedal dropped to floor causing the car to not stop as normal, almost resulting in two separate accidents. Also, when starting the car, brake pedal dropped to floor. Does not happen consistently, but several times over the last month. Midas replaced the master cylinder, as they suggested, but the incident happened twice after. All times were on city streets. Instead of the normal light touch needed i've used since 2009, i had to stomp the brake completely to get it to stop and avoid accidents. |
