Well sheeeeeet.

Brakes failed in the car yesterday. They started acting really oddly, losing compression if I was easing down on them, and they finally gave up the ghost after I'd done some running around. Left poor Gwen (yes, I name my cars) at the Regency Mall overnight and had her towed to the shop this morning after nearly rear-ending some poor pickup. Rather alarming events. Brakes are our friends. Turns out part of the brake system was waiting for us at home in the driveway. Greeeattt.

There's nothing scarier than failed brakes on the road. o.o;

Nightmares about stuff like that used to terrify me. *shudder* You're lucky you didn't get in a wreck!

Now I'm going to be paranoid about my car for the next week. :-P

Part of the brake system?

You mean it was more then just a single leak on the pipes?

*hugs*
