a wild panda tampering with your brakes
Heat up the brake pads and cause brake fade.
Worn brake shoes or pads. A leaking brake pipe. Low brake fluid. Air in the brake fluid pipe.
Check the brake fluid level in reservoir.
Brake fade is caused by the brake pads overheating. If this happens all the time and not just during hard braking, then the pads are glazed over. You can lightly sand them to remove the glazing, or just replace the pads. Now if you are referring to brake pedal being soft, then you have air in the system. Bleed your brakes. Check your e-brake too......Many people leave it on and not realize it. Brake fade will manifest very quickly.
Brake fade is the reduction in stopping power that can occur after repeated application of the brakes, especially in high load or high speed conditions. Brake fade is caused by a buildup of heat in the braking surfaces and the subsequent changes and reactions in the brake system components and can be experienced with both drum brakes and disk brakes. Brake fade occurs most often during high performance driving or when going down a long, steep hill.
Brake fade is caused by the overheating of the brake system components, which leads to a loss of braking effectiveness. This can occur due to excessive or prolonged braking, driving in hilly terrain, towing heavy loads, or using brakes that are worn or not properly maintained. The high temperatures reduce the friction between the brake pads and rotors, resulting in decreased stopping power.
Brake fade happens when the temperature of the pads and rotors begin to equalize. This wont cause damage to the car. At worst the pads will glaze over and make noise when they cool down. Easy fix. That being said. Not being able to stop because your brakes are hot tends to lead to a lot of damage.
possible air in the brake lines.

You will wear out the brakes prematurely and you may also overheat the brakes and experience brake fade (no or poor brakes).
Yes, an overheating engine can potentially lead to brake failure. When an engine overheats, it can affect various components of the vehicle, including the brake system. For instance, if the overheating causes brake fluid to boil, it may lead to brake fade or loss of braking power. Additionally, if the overheating impacts other systems like the transmission, it could indirectly affect braking performance.
