1995 CHEVROLET LUMINA Service Brakes, Hydraulic Problems

ON A ROAD TEST FOR A CUSTOMER I LOST THE BRAKES, AS IT DEVELOPED A HARD PEDAL WITHOUT POWER ASSIST. THE CONDITION WAS INTERMITTENT. UPON INVESTIGATION I DISCOVERED THE VACUUM HOSE FROM THE BACK OF THE INTAKE TO THE POWER BOOSTER WAS SOFTENED WITH OIL CONTAMINATION AND HAD BEGUN TO COLLAPSE CUTTING OFF VAC TO THE BOOSTER. I INSTALLED A NEW HOSE ASSEMBLY BUT THIS CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AND COULD CAUSE PROBLEMS FOR ANY DRIVER AT ANY TIME. THE VEHICLE WAS A 1995 CHEVY LUMINA 3.4 V6. CLEARANCE IS VERY TIGHT WHERE THE HOSE RUNS. I THINK GM SHOULD GO TO A HARD HOSE INSTEAD OF A PERFORMED RUBBER HOSE. THE ENGINE WAS NOT LEAKING OIL. THIS FAILURE WAS HEAT AN NORMAL WEAR. BEING THESE CARS ARE 10 YEARS OLD THEY ARE STARTING TO FAIL. I SUSPECT EVERY VEHICLE WITH THE 3.4 L ENGINE WILL HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM NOT JUST THE LUMINA. *JB
