“1992 Mazda 626 dx, odometer 184,580mi. Vehicle traveling at approx 35mph on city street. As another vehicle cut me off I pressed the brakes hard at which point I heard a popping sound and brake pedal went all the way to the floor but the car was not stopping. At which point I pumped the brakes a few times and only heard some air hissing sound. I was lucky enough to be able to downshift the manual transmission and use the hand brake to narrowly avoid an accident. …”
