Low brake pedal

my gen5 has a low brake pedal, sometimes pedal will continue down while at a stop. Read many threads and cannot see similar problem. Anyone see this problem?

 

sounds like your master cylinder is dying.

 

is the brake light on the dash lighting up, have you checked the fluid level

 

it's all gas for me. who needs brakes?

 

not a problem on these 5th gen 4runners.. pedal drop is usually a leak.. also since it is 5th gen I doubt the master is bad. since your pedal does drop lower than normal you did check that the brake fluid, it is at the full mark ..

if it is low after you last checked the fluid , then a leak.. if the fluid is normal level correct and no fluid added that could be the master .. new vehicles can have these problems if you have your vehicle serviced , as the brake fluid does get contaminated if they add the damaged fluid .. contaminated fluid does occur and the lube jocky floor sweeper can kill it..
