2007 Suzuki Reno w/ 92,000 miles, brake issues Sign In

Okay so I had new brake shoes and rotors installed onthe front of my reno. They worked great for one day and then the next day the car will not hold brake fluid. The inside of both back tires are drenched with liquid and under the hood I've discovered a mysterious very narrow approx. 2 feet hose that isnt connected to anything at either end. The brake pedal goes all the way to the floor and does nothing as far as helping to slow or stp the car. Same withthe emergency brake... What's going on? Is is something that i can fix at home?

Guessing you let a shop do this. Fronts needed attention and now leaking in rear? They might have bled out entire system and had a fight with a rear and things didn't go well. Parking brake should be all separate from hydraulic system and dunno but some are inside the calipers of the rear subject to getting messed up. Of course don't drive it and call the place that did the work is best I can suggest,

OK, so you have a leak and someone is going to have to determine what is leaking. I would be very surprised if it wasn't the result of something they did.

Morris - He/she had the work done and this happened to rear when fronts were worked on. A part is left (unknown) and has no service or "emergency" brake. As said by OP rear wheels covered in fluid. This job failed no doubt and shop should tend to this IMO. BOTH rear wheels at that?! Something went real wrong all at once.

My wild guess is bleeders for rear broke off, perhaps removed to extract or use a repair bleeder and may have used heat in excess. Park cable left un attached could be the part not connected? All guesses and I say shop that touched it with this type of wild problem needs to go back by tow truck now,
