1 Brake Drum Wheel Cylinder problem

Failure Date: 08/01/2017

Brakes are very spungy and do not seem to ingage. Brakes will fill like they are starting to work and then release and you must push brakes down further before they will start braking. Very slow braking response time. Had the brakes bleed twice and did not fix the problem so the mechanic replaced the master brake cylinder and the car braking did not change at all. Makes me very nervous to drive the vehicle due to slow braking response.
