No breaks

[Maxpowell868]

Hey guys, I have a 2004 vz acclaim the breaks have been quite soft lately but still there just, then all of a sudden there are no breaks at all.

The rear breaks have been clamped and it has break fluid and doesn’t leak so would anyone have any idea?

Its like the break fluid isn’t getting to the breaks, I think it might be the break booster not to sure though.

Thanks

How are the brake pads and rotors? still got meat on them?

Also have you tried bleeding the system to get the air out? as that may be causing the pillow pedal

How are the brake pads and rotors? still got plenty of meat on them?

Also have you bled the brakes of possible air? that could the cause of the pillow pedal

Sounds like the OP has some dodgy work going on with this car

Holy, totally missed that. That would be the starting point.

OP needs to have his vehicle towed to local BRAKE shop.
Sounds very dangerous.
Do not drive it or maybe CRASH injuring someone.
Are you FULLY insured? You better be.

Doubt an insurance company will cover him for blocked off brakes, so insurance will be irrevelant

He states he is in EnZed, so no insurance worries for us here in Oz..
Mort may have some words of encouragement for him, before his lack of BRAKES causes something else to BREAK.
