 Description of the problemJune 2015: made a 'hard stop' to get out of path of emergency vehicle. Made 2 turns (slowing car down) and safely made turns without incident. Third turn (right turn), released gas pedal, stepped on brakes, brake pedal went low (towards floor), car eventually stopped, approximately 15ft, further than expected. This happened within 10 minutes from initial 'hard stop'. Checked brake fluid level, noticed fluid level above minimum line, but also noted fluid color had some color (aware that color in brake fluid is not good). Made appointment for service at dealership authorized service center . Service center indicated brake lining problem (not within tolerance), and replaced them. Note: city driving, dry day, light morning traffic. No brake warning light or abs warning light illumination on dash board. July 2015: exiting one highway to get onto another highway, needed to brake to get onto exit ramp. Took foot off gas pedal, signaled to turn right, stepped on brake to slow down and exit. Brake pedal went low (towards floor), car took more time to slow down than anticipated. Made way to destination (at reduced speed) and depressed brake pedal to identify if/how car could stop. Called service center, explained what occurred and brought car back to service center. Service center identified master cylinder needed replacing and it was replaced. Note: highway driving, dry day, midday traffic-light. No brake warning light or abs warning light illumination on dash board. August 2015: local driving, on highway, exiting to the right, took foot off gas pedal, then started to depress brake pedal. Car started to slow down then felt rapid thumping underfoot while depressing brake pedal, brake pedal went low (towards floor). Car eventually stopped. Check brake fluid level (at max line) and fluid color clear. Car towed to dealership service center. It is still there.

    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.
