June 2022 CrashInjury

All of a sudden my brakes started going all the way to the floor and it became incredibly difficult to stop the car. My ABS system and hydraulic control valve were replaced in november of 2019. The same thing happened to me on 11/10/2020. My car is currently in the shop and they say it's the same problem again.
