Hi there,
Your mechanic is more likely correct. A leaking master cylinder is a more probable explanation for the complete brake failure after 550 miles. A leak leads to a loss of hydraulic pressure essential for braking, causing sudden failure. Leaks develop over time, the leak could occur slowly, and the 550-mile mark might be coincidental. If you have doubts about your previous mechanic, it is better if you can check and consult another repair shop for a 2nd opinion. They can physically inspect the brake system and confirm the source of the failure (leak or improper brake bleeding).
