Consumer Description

WHILE SLOWLY COMING TO A STOP, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME HARD YET THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP AND SEEMED TO GLIDE FOR 10-15 FEET BEFORE FINALLY STOPPING AT WHICH POINT THE ENGINE REVVED TO 6000 RPM, BUT DID NOT ACCELERATE. THE PEDAL BECAME SO HARD THAT I COULD NOT PRESS ANY HARDER, YET WAS STILL SLOWLY MOVING. TURNED THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED THE CAR AND DROVE TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. ON 7/15/2013 THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN AS I WAS PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL I COULD FEEL THE CAR CONTINUING TO MOVE FORWARD AND THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY HARD YET STILL DID NOT STOP THE CAR. AS SOON AS THE CAR FINALLY STOPPED THE ENGINE REVVED TO 3500 RPM, AT WHICH TIME I SHUT IT OFF. CAR IS BACK AT THE DEALER AND BMWNA HAS BEEN NOTIFIED OF BOTH EPISODES. *TR
