The problem is most likely a pinched or kinked or dented brake line. Most likely the brake line that travels across the REAR face of the rear axle. This can happen real ez if a jack is run under the car real fast and hard hiting the brake line. So look for a dent or collapsed section in the brake lines. Rubber hoses CAN be bad from the factory too.

If inspection of lines renders no problems then u'll have to pop each bleeder one at a time as i outlined above to find the offending section of the brake system to analyze further.
