FIAT Punto - Fiat Punto 1999 - Brake Failure - Anon237

Hi

I was in an accident this week where the breaks felt like they popped under my foot and then the pedal went flat to the floor, the result of this was quite a serious crash in which the car was taken for inspection by the police. It was I who phoned the police and reported the incident and now they are claiming the breaks are fine and they might prosecute me for careless driving!!! I have advised the police they definitely have it wrong and I know what happened as I was there but they wont believe me. I read an article on here dated in 2001 stating they had issues with the breaks failing and then going back to normal again.... I was just wondering if anyone else has had similar issues?

Any help or facts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks x
