Ok I only got a chance to take an initial look at it once it got towed home. I pulled all 4 wheels and everything looked ok, except the entire inside of the right front wheel and tire were covered with brake fluid. The caliper, disc, and pads are soaked in brake fluid, and the fluid in the rear part of the brake fluid reservoir is about a 1/2 inch below the "min" mark.
My first guess is blown seals in the caliper as the rubber hose, and steel line are dry and intact, but the caliper is covered in brake fluid.
I'm just wondering why that would cause complete brake failure?
Comments or ideas???
Next thing is I'm going to open the bleeder screws and test each caliper to see if it is getting pressure when the pedal is pressed.
