Consumer Description

While driving on the NYS Thruway my brake light came on and when I tried to engage my brakes it was difficult to push the pedal and the brakes were barely responsive. Now the brake pedal is difficult to push each time I start the vehicle and it barely stops when I begin moving. The rotors and pads are fine. My mechanic diagnosed the problem and it's a failed vacuum pump.
