Pontiac Vibe Brake Master Cylinder
Brake Master Cylinder is an important part of the braking system of Pontiac Vibe vehicles which is utilized to translate the force exerted by the foot to hydraulic pressure. This hydraulic pressure is transmitted to the slave cylinders that in turn actuates the brake calipers or the brake drums to produce the necessary friction so as to stop the vehicle. Most of the time the master cylinder comprises pistons, seals, and springs and is made from cast iron or aluminum alloy while the fluid containers are normally integrated or separable. Pontiac Vibe cars incorporate dual circuit master cylinders; in case one of the circuits gets damaged, the other will be productive enough to supply the car's braking needs. Designing the system this way helps in the improvement of safety because the lift can still operate even if the hydraulic system has failed. Some of the most frequent problems with the Brake Master Cylinder are connected with the leakage of the fluid and internal problems that resulted in a decrease of the car's brake efficiency. Daily patrol to detect any sign of leakage or moisture on the braking system is crucial to improve on its efficiency and effectiveness.
