Default HELP!!! Brake problem w/ my 99 LS400

Well, just came to Houston this morning and had a great trip...worked out, was on my way to my parents and BAM!!!

I pushed on my brakes to stop and it was stuck...I had to use all my strength to stop the damn car!!! I googled it and it sounds like either a brake booster or a master cylinder...

everyone I talk to says "wow, that's rare"...which tells me Oh ***** $$$...

Anyone ever experience this?

Hey RRJ, I also have a 99 and have experienced something simmilar. A few weeks ago in socal after the rain we had a cold front roll through and we had pretty cold weather for a couple of days. On one of those days it felt like my brake pedal had something behind it, there was a sticking point in the pedal movement. Is that simmilar to what you were experiencing?
