My wife was driving the 500 the other night and she suffered a very nasty brake failure .... She pressed the pedal to brake at a crossroads and the pedal dropped to the floor and the brakes failed completely... She continued across the junction ( luckily there was nothing else coming ) and then came to a stop on the incline... I attended ( dutiful husband ) and having checked the brakes as best I could in the dark, drove it the 5 miles home. I had no issues and the brakes worked ( they are crap though eh !! ). Today I looked around the car and I cannot find anything amiss. The reservoir is full and I can't see any leaks. The brakes work fine. My wife is now refusing to drive the car again so I need to sort it out.... Could anybody give me some tips please ? I am led to believe that the master cylinder ( I'm presuming that's the servo ) has a habit of failing... Thanks in anticipation...
