Is it safe to drive a car with a rear cylinder leak?
No. Get it fixed as soon as possible. When you have brake fluid leaking out of your rear cylinder, you are putting lubricant on your rear brake. That is keeping that brake from working. It is also letting brake fluid drain out of the car. Your car needs brake fluid to stop the car. If you lose a lot of brake fluid, you will put your foot on the brake pedal and it will go all the way to the floor and nothing will happen. It can be dangerous when you drive down the highway at a high rate of speed and put your foot on the brake pedal and nothing happens.
