Default RE: melting brake pedal


ORIGINAL: acreesefamily

Our 96 Accord is having the same problem intermittently. It has been taken to a few different service stations, but they are unable to determine the cause, even after specifically requesting that they look at the a leak in the master cylinder. Were you able to get this fixed? What was the outcome?
First off.....Welcome to HAF............

second off,, REPLACE the Brake master Cylinder as soon as possible......
it has an internal leak and when a shop looks at it they cannot find any leaks,, it will act up worse on HOT days and during the hottest part of the day,,,,,,,,,it might work ok in the early mornings and in the evenings,,,,,,,,,,
It is very very dangerous the way it is, because if you were to need to make a panic stop and there is nothing there you could get in an accident hurting yourself, your loved ones or other people in different car or pedestrians .....


GUYS , GUYS GUYS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,IF , the brake pedal goes to floor INTERMITTENTLY , worse in HOT DAYS ,,, YOU need to replace the BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER ASAP,,,,,,,,,,
DO NOT waste your time bleeding the brakes, that will never fix the problem,,, and there are no visible leaks ,,it is an internal leak
