That is due to a lack of pressure in the brake system. More precisely, you are out of brake fluid and it has leaked , more than likely , from one of the brakes, or the master cylinder has failed. Do not attempt to drive it in this condition. You have NO stopping power. Call a mechanic immediately and have this fixed. Good Luck
By pushing the gas pedal all the way to the "floor"
The best way to tell when you need brakes is by squeaking, when the brakes are rubbing against the metal, when your brake pedal goes all the way to the floor and when you are running out of break fluid.
It wasnt assembled right
Push the gas pedal all the way to the floor while cranking the engine.
Hold your gas pedal all the way to the floor while trying to start the vehicle.
Something is impairing the brake pedal to go to the floor. Only a mechanic can tell you what is happening.
Master cylinder failure.
Check your brake fluid level in the master cylinder... you may have a leak some where
Turn key on do not start. Push the gas pedal all the way to the floor 3 times, make sure you let all the way off of the pedal each time. Then turn key off and then start engine.
Sounds to me like the master cylinder is shot.
The first suspect when a brake pedal goes all the way to the floor is an empty - or almost empty - master cylinder. It could also be a bad brake booster, a ruptured line, etc. The car should be TOWED to a repair facility, and the cause found and corrected before the car is driven again.
Usually when the break petal goes all the way to the floor, it indicates a leak in the break system. The most common causes are:no break fluid in the master cylinder due to a break line opening or a leaking valve in the master cylinder itself.if it is a power break system, then the vacuum assist may be leaking. There is a small (usually white) valve with a vacuum hose on it (about half inch) that tends to go bad and causes the petal to go down to the floor. Its typically an easy fix, an inexpensive.Good Luck.
