I was recently involved in a low-impact collision while driving a 2004
Honda CR-V. I hit the back of another car at round 25kph, denting the
radiator, and immediately after the collision my brakes failed, and I
had to bring the car to a halt using the parking brake. Shortly
afterwards, two independent witnesses - one an experienced tow truck
driver - verified that the brake pedal went straight to the floor with
no resistance. However, after a few days at the body shop, it seems as
if the brakes are working normally. Does anyone have any ideas how this
might have happened? I don't feel safe driving the car in future unless
I know that the problem has been fixed - does anyone have any
suggestions what might have happened, and how to approach Honda about
this?
