Soft Brake Pedal? A Guide to Emergency Brake Hose Repairs on Malaysia Highways

The Hydraulic Lifeline: Your Brake Hoses

CRITICAL ACTION: What to Do When Your Brakes Feel Soft

• STOP THE CAR. SAFELY. NOW: This is not an issue to be taken lightly. Use your hazard lights, gently apply what braking power you have, and use the parking brake to bring the car to a stop as quickly and safely as possible. Do not continue driving.
• Do Not Pump the Brakes: Unlike old brake systems, pumping modern hydraulic brakes will only push more fluid out of the leak faster, accelerating the failure.
• Do Not Attempt to Drive Further: Do not think you can "limp" to the next town. You are a danger to yourself and everyone else on the road. The brake system could fail completely at any moment.
• Call for Emergency Roadside Service: This is a critical failure that requires immediate professional attention.
