 Description of the problemI first noticed the problem when i was slowing to a stop on a city street. I had my foot on the brake pedal applying constant pressure and the vehicle was slowing down. Then it felt as if the brakes had loosened and the car was no longer slowing down. I "pumped" the brake pedal (let up on the pedal and then re-applied pressure) and i had pedal pressure and was able to apply brakes to slow down. I tested the brakes again at the next intersection and they felt fine so i ignored it thinking i had probably lifted my foot off the pedal. It happened 1 or 2 other times, and i also had my wife drive the vehicle to ensure it wasn't just me. She also noticed the odd feel and behavior of the brake pedal. At this time (maybe 1 week after first noticing the problem), i was testing the brakes and was able to push the peddle all the way to the floor. It had brake pedal, but if i kept increasing the pressure, it would go to the floor, but with some resistance. Think of an air mattress as you are pushing air out of it. That is what it felt like. It was at this point i took it into my local dealership and they confirmed the master cylinder was faulty and needed to be replaced. There is an existing recall on the same make, model, and year of my vehicle (investigation: pe 16-003, recall: 16v-345), but only for vehicles manufactured august 1, 2013, to august 31, 2014. My vehicle was manufactured in june 2013 at the kansas, missouri plant.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
