03 brake issues

[swinky]

Alright guys I had to get on my brakes hard the other day and I lost some of my pedal, maybe took two more inches of travel until the brakes actually applied. Did it again and I lost them completely. Pedal stays up but goes to the floor when applied. Sometimes after leaving it running for a bit I can stop once but thats it. Tried bleeding them and fluid does shoot out of the bleeder screws hard. All fluids are in check and the power steering works as it should. Could one bad caliper cause me to loose all of my brakes?

Sounds more like your master cylinder, if it was a caliper seal or something you would see brake fluid leaking out.

They will work once every 30 seconds or so. If you try them twice in a row or for a long time it goes to the floor.

Future reference, a bad caliper will cause this same issue
