Vehicle was fine until the front calipers, pads, rotors were replaced. Then randomly started loosing braking power. brakes are fine, new.

Then at random they quit working again Code c12fe abs pressure pump loss

Rear brakes faulty no to minimal braking power to the rear bakes as of today stopping distance significantly increased...by 20-30 feet.. no check engine light, ABS or brake light illuminated...currently there is no reason as to why it should not be working... front brakes work perfectly fine.. momentary power loss to vital components lost. System power loss event that caused power steering and all wheels to lock up among other things to stop working. Approximate speed at the time was 50mph... engine was still running at the time I was very fortunate for it to happen on a off ramp the two cars behind me were able to stop in time... it nearly cause and accident pile up with 2 other cars
