| Description of the problem | After several complaints from my wife about the brake pedal going to the floor and not being able to stop, i changed the master cylinder. Seemed to happen during rainy days. The front and rear pads had been changed prior. No leaks detected in lines, nor when the master cylinder was removed. Brakes bled, new fluid throughout the system. No air in the system. Proper fluid level maintained at all times. A couple of days after the master cylinder was changed, the same problem occurred as i was braking. It was a clear day with no debris or wet surfaces. Fluid still at max, no leaks, all new parts with the exception of the abs components. Any info, as this seems to be occurring with more owners, would be greatly appreciated. |
