My wife hit a baby deer accidentially as it darted out onto the street. not much damage to the car aside from a bent license plate and the back passenger pastic fender trim falling out.
But the weird thing is now her brakes feel spongy. The car still stops but it seems like you have to really press on the brakes to get it to stop and the brakes feel like they go down deeper compared to before she got into an accident. I quicky checked for a brake leak but found none. No leaks around her car. Her brake fluid was a little low so I topped that off. After searching google, i now think it might be the vacuum hose to the brake booster.
so here's my question, would it be possible for a the vacuume hose to be compormised by running over something? in this case a baby deer?
thanks for any input!
