| Description of the problem | The break pedal loses pressure randomly. Typically, i only need to push down slightly to get the vehicle to completely stop, but sometimes, after pushing down the pedal like i normally would, the car doesn't slow down at all, and i have to press the pedal to the floor and wait for it to stop. It's very scary, as i don't know if my car will stop when i need it to. In the past, this has lasted for three or four days, then randomly, the break is back to normal, and my car stops on a dime. I'm not sure what causes this, but i feel like i'm taking a gamble every time i start my car to leave in the morning or anytime i need to go somewhere. |
