Hello, the brakes on my 1990 Carat seemed to grow tired this weekend and don't have much stopping power. I was driving 3 months problem free, it was great! Anways the problem is quickly getting worse, and my daily driver is not safe for me to drive anymore :-( I checked the brake fluid, it is fine, although it probably could use a change. I really have to pump the brakes a couple times to get any stopping power and it doesn't hold long before it feels like something. I gotta get this fixed by next monday, I have to make a road trip to to Philly for work. Hopefully this is something I can fix by myself or with an assistant, the funds are kinda low. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. |
