What is Brake pedal is hard to push Inspection?

Modern vehicle’s braking systems are equipped with brake master cylinder and brake servo and is  a vacuum assisted brake booster system. A vacuum diaphragm multiplies the force you apply to the brake pedal, making it easier for you to brake and giving you more control.When the brake pedal is depressed the vacuum source closes and allowing atmospheric pressure to enter from one side of the vacuum diaphragm. This causes the master cylinder pistons to apply the required pressure on the brake calipers which in-turns pushes the brake pads across the brake discs and the vehicles slows down or stops completely. When you take your foot off the brake pedal, vacuum returns to both sides of the diaphragm and the master cylinder pistons return to their normal position.
