Sometimes your vehicle comes to stop when you applied brake. This can be embarrassing and disappointing. You may have imagined what could cause the brake and stop. Here are the major causes.
Brake System
The brake system is composed of the disk brakes in the front end and/or rear of the vehicle that connects to a system of tubes and hoses. This system works through the master cylinder as the driver steps on the brake pedal that pushes a plunger against it. The action forces hydraulic oil (or brake fluid) through the tubes and hoses into the braking unit at each wheel. The brake fluid forces the caliper inside the master cylinder to press against the piston. The two brake pads squeeze on the rotor attached to the wheel to slow down or make a complete stop. The parking brakes, power brake booster and anti-lock system are also connected with the brake system.
Stalling
One way the car stalls is if there is a leak in the brake booster, either by a blockage of the vacuum hose or a cracked, ruptured or leaking diaphragm. Another is the master cylinder leaking brake fluid, either internally or externally from the cylinder boot. Stalling can also happen if there is a brake line obstruction, either by a chunk of rust or a pinched brake line. Air in the brake fluid from a hole in the system can prevent proper pressure to the brakes. The car may also stall due to a vacuum leak in the anti-lock brakes system.
