Brakes problem
1996 Toyota Camry 4 cyl Automatic 210,00 miles

There is no pressure on the brake pedal, took it to the shop, and they changed the master cylinder. Less than a week later the same problem occured no pressure on the pedal, not able to fully break. They can not figure out why the back brakes are not fully braking, and want me to pick up the car with no brakes still. They have bleed the brake lines a # of times, said there are no leaks in the lines, and the vaccum is fine. Any clues to where the problem might be??

When yousat you have "no pressure on the pedal", do you mean the pedal goes to the floor?
It sounds like a bad master cylinder. I've seen bad cylinders bad right out of the box. If you had good brakes for a week, I'd say you got a bad master. Please advise.
