| Description of the problem | I have had this issue occur a few times on the highway. The speeds are generally between 40-60 mph. When i put my foot on the brake, it is as though it is locked or frozen. Each time it has begun to work after a few times releasing my foot from the brake, but it is worrisome. I became more worried when i noticed that a couple of other people have reported the same issue. It certainly does not happen all the time, but that it happens at all is concerning when we are talking about braking at highway speed. |
