Description of the problem	Hydraulic brake system. Vehicle was sitting in driveway without use for a few weeks. When used brakes were very spongy, long pedal travel before reaction then extended stopping distance. Fluid level ok, clear appeared normal, no apparent leaks, normal temperature. Drove to dealer carefully, service manager when moving vehicle said he almost ran through the back otf the building. Vehicle not in any accidents, service maintenance conducted at normal intervals according to service recommendations. Approximately 27000 miles on vehicle. Driven by myself 50 years old and my wife 47 years old safe drivers speed limit speeds large amount of stopping distance for braking not jamming on brakes at last minute. I scheduled vehicle for service at win kelly chevrolet where purchased for brake check and 30,000 mile checkup. While there they advised it was interior failure of master cylinder and they replaced it under warranty. The brakes feel a little better but the pedal still moves approximately 4" before applying any pressure. I feel this is still a problem and will be taking it back to the dealer again. I believe they have a problem with the system like they had on previous s10 models in late 90's with the slow speed braking recall. Just want to send a complaint for you to be aware of in case you receive more complaints. I emailed a letter to gm while it was in the shop with the same comments and the reference to the previous for the smaller versions in the late 90's and have yet to receive a response. If this is the same problem then they may have a valve design, operation or part assemble/install defect with the system. *nm
