Brakes failure
The brakes on my fathers 95 Crown Vic (Police Interceptor), doesn't work too well.
If I press the breaks, and sitting at a red light, the brake will just "drop" to the floor slowly, and release brake pressure, causing the car to roll. Also, if I press the brakes, let go a little, and press again, it goes right down to the floor instantly. Pressing the brakes hard and fast also cause it to go to the floor, but make the power booster "area" make a whine sound. My father can't tell if it's the master cylinder or the power booster. Any ideas?

Re: Brakes failure
If the pedal falls to the floor, it is the master cylinder by-passing internally. Replace the master cylinder. If it were the booster, the brake pedal would be really hard to push.

Re: Brakes failure
I agree with way2old on this one.
