edit:the vehicle was not poorly maintained by me jrr, we obtained it as a used vehicle less than 6 mths ago. And since my son hebron who loves the truck told me that when he turns 16 he wants it for his vehicle, I have spent over 1700 on the beginning of fixing it up for him. The last thing we did to it was to redo all the electrical connectors and wiring to make sure that the windows were all in top shape, just last week I redid the entire ingnition from top down. If the brakes are simply a well used time to die issue thats ok, we will redo the entire drive train at the same time as doing the brakes. Just last night I tracked this down for the truck

So just so you know jrr I do not poorly maintain vehicles I run them in pristine condition. I even go so far as to make them sleeper vehicles possessed of the ability to move if they have to. You never know when you will need to avoid an obstacle or stop real fast.
jrr though the brake light goes on and they lack power the physical pressure on the peddle is enough to make contact.
when tomorrow comes and I get the midas guy to write it down see for yourself. And how I know it was not over looked is because when you give a vehicle to a mechanic to do a road worthy check brakes is definitely one thing they look at no? and is it a sign of normal wear and tear for all 4 wheels to lose it at the same time?
Think what you will jrr, I am simply posting one very bizarre thing that is happening to me an my family and it was highly recommended to me to publicly document this in as open a way as I could. Just in case. As well my own personal belief in things amongst other things told me this was the best way to make sure the bases were covered.
in terms of evidence of tinkering this morning there was no note in my mailbox so why would i think my brakes were anything but failing on their own. Except it did seem funny to me somewhat that all 4 of the trucks brake systems on the truck failed at the same time and a cable. I have heard of front going or back going but not both at the same time.
If it is simple wear and tear be sure I will post it up as that.
I may be many things jrr, but I am not a game player!
