RWY EXCURSION BY A PA32 SARATOGA PVT PLT WHEN THE R BRAKE FAILS DURING LNDG ROLL AT FPR.

Narrative

I WAS LNDG IN FPR DURING DAYLIGHT; GOOD WX IN MY 1989 PIPER SARATOGA FIXED GEAR PLANE WHEN; DURING THE ROLLOUT; DUE TO A FAILURE OF THE R BRAKE THE ACFT VEERED TO THE L AND WENT INTO THE GRASS ON THE L SIDE OF THE RWY. I BELIEVED THAT I HAD A NOSE GEAR PROB BUT AFTER THE PLANE WAS INSPECTED; THE MECH DETERMINED THAT I APPLIED THE BRAKES OF BOTH PEDALS BUT ONLY THE L BRAKE WAS PROPERLY FUNCTIONING DUE TO AIR AND/OR A LEAK OF FLUID FROM THE MASTER CYLINDER. THESE REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE AND I HAVE SCHEDULED A CFI TO CONDUCT SOME DUAL TIME IN ORDER TO FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THE ACFT AND IN ORDER TO OBTAIN SOME ANTICIPATORY TRAINING IN THE EVENT THAT THIS EVER HAPPENS AGAIN. THERE WAS NO DAMAGE DONE TO MY AIRPLANE AND NO DAMAGE DONE TO THE ARPT AREA. I HAVE OWNED THIS PLANE FOR YRS AND WAS FAMILIAR WITH THE TYPE BY OWNERSHIP OF THIS PLANE AND A SIMILAR ONE IN THE PAST. THE PLANE'S FRONT NOSEWHEEL PANTS HAD BEEN DAMAGED BY AN FBO TOWING THE PLANE ONLY 4 DAYS BEFORE THIS INCIDENT AND ALTHOUGH I BELIEVED THAT THIS WAS THE CAUSE OF THE PROB AS I WAS ROLLING OFF THE RWY; I AM NOW CONFIDENT THAT IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS OUTCOME.
