Cracks and chips - can appear due to sudden changes in temperature. Symptoms of this issue are the brake pedal jerking or vibrating when slowing down or reversing.
Oxidation of adjusters and springs. This is a result of long-term exposure to moisture and a lack of ventilation. Symptoms of this issue are an increase in braking distance and pedal travel.
Elastic cylinder cup peeling. This is caused either by a collision or incorrect installation. This problem leads to the loss of air-tightness and leakage of brake fluid. If this issue occurs the corresponding indicator on the dashboard will light up.
