Consumer Description

The vacuum pump brake booster on my Chevy Colorado went out with no warning first the camshaft went out then once the cam shaft was fixed the brakes didnt work luckily I made it home but the risk was there as the brakes became incredibly stiff and hard to press with me using all my weight to stop the truck I had a mechanic look at it and confirm the pump/booster as the readings show it’s getting power and that it has air but the pump is not working there was no warning no lights no nothing one day it was working the next it wasn’t same with the camshaft both things happened with zero warning
