Brake master cylinder prematurely malfunctioned, causing the power brake booster to fail. Also, caused the brake pedal to travel to the floor, resulting in extended stopping distance.

Ram Conversion Van 4WD

The brakes have not been 100% since I purchased this vehicle. I took the vehicle to the dealer AT41,000 miles and complained about low pedal. I was told that the pads and shoes were fine. At about 50,000 miles, the brake booster failed and the vehicle had to be towed to the dealer. Squealing noise from under the hood was found to be the water pump.
