braking problems
now that i finished reading the stickies and can't find the answer maybe someone here can help. i had a shop replace my brakelines and they made a hole in one so everyday i have to put fluid in the resevoir or it will be empty by the next day. so today after running out of fluid i run to the 7-11 to get some and i add it to the top but my brake pedal still goes to the ground when i press it to stop. what do i do now?i tried pumping the brakes but it just hardens up and then goes back to going all the way to the floor again.

You need to find the leak and fix it. Once you have the leak fixed (i.e. hose replaced), flush the brake system. You have air trapped in there.
I would recommend you stop driving that car until you have it fixed.

Find the leaking line and replace it yourself. Or better yet, take it to another shop and get it fixed right away. It is very dangerous to be driving your car like that. You are endangering yourself and everyone else that may get in your way.

You paid for a service that was to be done right. Did you pay full/normal rate and get your **** messed up? Then you got ripped off. You shouldnt have paid anywhere near that if the service was done incorrectly. Get to the shop now and threaten them that you are going to sue because they ripped you off.
