1996 Plymouth Breeze
The last couple of winters my wife's Plymouth Breeze has an issue when it gets bitterly cold outside (we live in Wisconsin).
The power brakes seem to fail and the pedal can barely be pushed down when it gets bitterly cold. We are able to stop the car, but I don't want her driving around with this problem. She had a brake job this summer (pads, drums, etc.), so we've verified that those weren't the issue.
We've taken it into a couple local places the last 2 years, but of course it won't do it when it's in the garage and they don't have any idea. Usually when it has a chance to warm up it starts to work all right.
My assumption is there is water somewhere causing something to freeze up. Beyond that, I have no clue.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thank you-
Andy
