Correct answer
- BEl servofreno perderá su asistencia y será necesario aplicar más fuerza al pedal de freno.The brake servo will lose its assistance and you will need to press harder on the brake pedal.
Explanation
The brake servo is a device, driven by the engine, that multiplies the force you put on the pedal when braking. If it fails, we will have to make up for it by pressing harder on the brake pedal.
