Consumer Description

BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELS DOWN TO THE FLOOD WHEN APPLIED. DEALER STATES THAT ALL SLINGSHOTS ACT THIS WAY. THE PEDAL WILL COME BACK UP IF PUMPED. BRAKES HAVE BEEN CHECKED BY DEALER. NO AIR IN THE LINE. THE PROBLEM MUST BE THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER.. WHEN TRAVELING AT NORMAL ROAD SPEED AND BRAKES NEED TO BE APPLIED, THE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR AND BRAKING EFFICACY IN COMPROMISED. I CALLED POLARIS, BUT NOBODY HAS RETURNED MY CALL.
