Your brake pedal went all the way to the floor with no stopping power while pulling into your garage, and the brake, ABS, and VSC warning lights all came on at the same time with a loud buzzing noise from the dashboard. You were able to stop using the emergency brake, but this happened immediately after driving on the highway at 70 mph with no prior warning signs. The repair will likely involve a complete brake system inspection and possible replacement of brake fluid, brake lines, or the master cylinder.

Filed: Aug 2010

While driving on the freeway, your dashboard warning lights illuminated and your brake system lost all power assist, forcing you to apply extreme pressure to the brake pedal and use the hand brake to stop. The dealership diagnosed this as an ABS actuator failure, which cost over $2,700 to repair. This is a critical safety issue that could prevent you from stopping your vehicle in an emergency.
