Bought a 94 Civic EX, with approx 170K miles. Great car. Service Rep suggested I replace the Brake Master as it was leaking. Since then, the Brakes have failed suddenly on way home from work (40mile drive in traffic). The Peddle feels soft, looses pressure. Pumping, causes incremental lose in pressure.
First Time it happened, I stomped to avoid a non-blinking lane changer. Pedel to the Floor and the car pulled to the Right???
Third Visit to the shop for this issue, was told the issue was due to Brake Fade caused from over heading Brake pads. Was suggested to install Ceramic pads and change fluid to Dot4. $440 later, No Improvement. Still have Soft, fading brakes. Pucker Factor is increasing.....
Any suggestions as to diagnosis, steps to reach Root Cause? Traffic here in DFW is pretty Fast. I avg 75 which is dangerous as traffic stops just as quickly.
Thanks in advance
