I just got a $1955 estimate to fix a problem with the brakes on my son's 2013 Kia Optima.
The pressure in the pedal was almost 100% gone last night, and thank goodness we were in a spot to stop safely.

Does anyone have thoughts on how to take care of this for less money?

I know almost nothing about brake boosters and pump modules, so any assistance to get my boy back on the road safely and without emptying our savings would be
much appreciated.

TIA,
Matt's Dad.

No ABS light. Should we do the booster and see if that works?

ABS light on? I highly doubt that a booster and a pump are both bad. what are the symptoms?

The pedal was going straight to the floor, it was braking, but seemingly with no help from the hydraulic system.
