| Description of the problem | Upon starting the car in the parking lot, the brake pressure did not release as usual when starting the car. When driven in the parking lot at low speeds, the brake does not function as it should. There is so much pressure that i can only press the pedal down a limited amount to make the car stop. After a few days of driving the car less than 10 miles total, the problem has worsened and there is less room to press the pedal down while braking. I took the car to get the brakes inspected and was told that everything is functioning as it should. I am worried the issue will worsen to the point that the brakes will not be able to be pressed down at all. |
