Possibility that the hydraulic brake master cylinder push rod retainer assembly may not have correct retention. If so, it may be possible to disconnect the pedal linkage by manually pulling the pedal upward with the foot. If the pedal linkage became disconnected, the pedal would go to the floor and would result in loss of brakes. (Install a gasket between the brake master cylinder and dash reinforcement plate.)
