Description of the problem	While driving on an expressway, there was a backup of traffic and i went to depress the brakes. The brake pedal was so stiff it could not be depressed and the brakes did not engage. I kept my foot n the brake and still there was no braking. I let up my foot and depressed the brake pedal again and finally got the brakes to work. This has happened several times while driving this vehicle.
