Consumer Description

FOR THE PAST YEAR OR SO THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR USUALLY WHILE BRAKING AND HITTING A BUMP. BRAKES WILL EVENTUALLY GO BACK TO NORMAL SOMETIMES AFTER A FEW MINUTES AND SOMETIMES AFTER A FEW HOURS. PUMPING THE BRAKE PEDAL DOES NOT HELP. UNSAFE BECAUSE NEVER KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN AND BRAKING POWER IS GREATLY REDUCING DURING THESE EVENTS. THIS HAPPENS EVERY FEW MONTHS OR SO.
