Mike ran something over with our car, Orange, yesterday. Upon applying the brakes to round a corner, he found it difficult to slow down. YIKES!
He made it home no problem, but decided we probably shouldn’t drive it any more. A quick cal to AAA and a tow truck arrived about an hour and a half later.
Bye bye Orange
(Note the brake fluid pool in the driveway)
The kids were facinated by the tow truck, but very worried about Orange.

I hope Orange will be fixed soon! My van is broken now too, but my hubby is working on it, so hopefully it’ll be better soon.
Yup…we just experienced that a few weeks ago. However, I ran over nothing. Just drive an old mini van and something major went wrong in back brakes so that all brake fluid leaked out. Wonderful. Very thankful though because it could have been much worse. A friend mechanic fixed it reasonably – thankful for that too. Good luck.
Hope that Orange is all better now. Scary thing when your brakes don’t work the way they should — eek!
