Breaks failing?


Okay 1999 GT. New everything. new breaks. Couple hundred miles on them. They work like a dream, then today out of nowhere I get in my car and I goto break.... nothing. They hit the floor. No response.

After it hits the floor, I jam it... and then it breaks a little not without a rough sound.

Whats the problem?!

mastercylinder? leak? caliper leak? i don't know you have to inspect the system. Best way to start is to start looking around the calipers for leaks.

i see no leaks. I'm kinda worried. Literarlly, they were working great, and now they just suddenly completely stop? Not even reduced performance. I'm talking nada.

'Brakes'

Do you notice brake fluid on the rims anywhere. And do you still have brake fluid in it?

Break fluid is not low to my knowledge. None on the rims, no leaks at all. No trace of it anywhere. No light on the instrument panel. It doesnt make sense to me.
