so i get in my car and my brake pedal is on the floor. i topped up the fluid but nothing happens still. there could be a possible leak but i highly doubt it. does it just need to be bled? ---

There is a leak. Bleeding will do nothing to resolve the problem. Find the leak, easy enough. Fix leak, also easy. ---

check your fittings thats where the leak usually is and or maybe you busted a brake line. Shouldnt be hard to find. ---

Probably a rusty rear line just before the subframe where they bend up. ---

Random things become brittle in -18C weather. I was in the middle of bum fuck no where with only one gas station nearby for who knows how long. The tank was pretry much empty, so I hit tatch and nothing happens. Try it again, nothing. I ha to alternate between prying it with a key and popping the latch. When I got the door open the release froze, so the door wouldnā€™t stay shut. I duct taped the slat and it closed proper after it was warmed up a bit. It could be worse. That slat could have went to the floor at a gas station in the middle of nowhere. This weather sucks. ---
