Default Re: Anyone else experience this issue?

I need to go back out and "test" the car somewhere with the stop lines or just find a safe place. I did not think of putting it in neutral, but not a bad suggestion to see if it is engine related.

It is almost as if the brakes were tuned not to lock up in a panic stop, so as hard as you press you cannot lock up the wheels/tires it just rolls a little extra. The brake pedal is also mushy, not firm overall. How should a PTs brakes be, are they normally firm on the pedal?

When I was at the dealer I even showed the Service guy by driving him around and he said he would talk to the Service manager and get back to me. I think they feel the brakes work "good enough". Perhaps if I was out of warranty and they could charge me to fix it they would find the problem.
