Brake pedal "went to the floor " without warning on my 1997 gmc suburban.dashboard failed to show a "red" brake light untilabout 1 hour later when i checked brakes again.there was virtuallybraking ability when this happened.car will be towed to dealer tonight. I have been driving cars for 50 years and have never seen anything like this. Whatever happened to "built in safety redundancy" to prevent something like this from happening ? luckily no one was hurt.
