Description of the problem | On nov. 25 & 26, while pulling up to a red light (2 times) and only traveling approximately 3 to 5 mph my pontiac aztek (2003) has felt like the brakes have released (disengaged while my foot was still on the brake pedal) and has caused me to stop 5 to 10 feet beyond the point where i intended to stop. The feeling was that of applying your brakes on a wet road and your abs system kicks in. However, in this case, instead of a repeated apply, release, apply braking feeling, it felt as if the brakes released on the one time and then fully applied as it should have done. *la |
