The vehicle was slowly moving into driveway and the brakes were applied and failed to stop the vehicle and hit the house. The vehicle was towed. The consumer was informed by dealership that the master cylinder failed. The master cylinder needed to be replaced. The consumer stated that there was no warning. The failure of the master cylinder caused the front brakes rotors and pads to burn up.
