I am getting uneven brake pressure in only my front brakes. The left side brakes harder than the right one. It's hard to stop on wet roads due to the uneven braking. I have already replaced the power brake booster, the master cylinder, both front calipers, pads, and rubber hoses. How can I fix this?

Hi,

It could be your rear brakes are not adjusted out the all the way be sure to adjust them first.You could still have air in you master cylinder. Bleed the master cylinder on the car at the lines starting with the rear line first. It could also be your proportioning valve is stuck. You have more brake pressure in the front than you in the rear. I'm attaching repair guides and video to help you with replacing the proportioning valve, bleeding and general brake brake system. Please let us know if this information was helpful and if you need more info.

Thank you
