Problems:

Brake fluid leaks
Hydraulic brake systems can suffer from brake fluid leaks, which reduce braking efficiency and can cause complete brake failure.
Brake fade
Prolonged use of brakes, especially under heavy loads, can cause the brakes to overheat and lose effectiveness.
Warped brake rotors
Overheating and heavy use can cause brake rotors to warp, leading to vibrations and reduced braking performance.
Sticking calipers
Brake calipers can seize or stick, causing uneven braking and increased wear on brake pads and rotors.
Low brake pedal
Air in the hydraulic brake lines or worn brake components can cause the brake pedal to feel spongy and lower than normal.
Master cylinder failure
The master cylinder, which generates hydraulic pressure for the brakes, can fail and lead to a loss of braking power.
Brake pad wear
Regular use causes brake pads to wear out, necessitating periodic replacement to maintain proper braking performance.
Abs (anti-lock braking system) issues
Failures in the ABS sensors or control module can cause the ABS warning light to turn on and affect braking performance.
Vacuum booster problems
The brake booster, which helps provide additional force to the brake pedal, can fail, making the brake pedal harder to press.
Contaminated brake fluid
Moisture or debris in the brake fluid can lead to corrosion, reduced brake performance, and potential brake system failure.
