 Description of the problemWhile driving to work and then back home from work i cross over a couple of railroad tracks. Going over them rather rough one time, i noticed my abs system light engaged and came on. Everything appears okay, abs light goes back off so we continue driving. However, the brakes are extremely soft and often have to be pushed all the way to the floor to engage any real ability to stop the vehicle. We found that pumping the brakes seems to help their softness, but it is not a fix for the situation as the brake pedal will still return to the floor when the next need for braking arises. Then we will have periods of driving with no issues. But have had this same problem with the brake pedal re-occur with some mild road abnormalities. Since this is not an issue that was constant at the time, we learned a way to get around it by pumping the brakes to put air back in the mechanism. But now it is happening every couple of weeks. My husband was hit on our front fender by a gentleman driving the wrong way and the small 'tap' from the accident seemed to have retriggered the soft braking issue so the mechanics looked into it since we described our problems.
