Consumer Description

WITHOUT WARNING, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. MY DAUGHTER WAS UNABLE TO STOP AND COLLIDED WITH THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF HER. THE BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR IS FULL. THE CAR WAS SERVICED REGULARLY BUT HAD NO RECENT BRAKE WORK COMPLETED. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER COMPLETELY FAILED. THE PARTY THAT WAS STRUCK IS NOW CLAIMING INJURY. WE DO NOT KNOW THE SEVERITY OF THEIR INJURIES. *NM
