The mechanics at the garage don't like the look of ya and tampered with your brakes?

@newt182 | 6 May 10 | |
Brake systems are designed so that this shouldn't happen. usually it would be just two wheels (diagonally) that lose all braking power leaving the other two at least working a lil bit. Maybe you were just unlucky, or see my first post.
