| Description of the problem | While starting the car the brake pedal goes almost to the floor and has become very soft or spongy. After "pumping" the brake it comes up but is still spongy. After driving the car a while it again looses pedal and continues to be spongy. Can't seem to be diagnosed and is worrisome. Car was both driven and stationary. Some have suggested master cylinder but there is plenty of fluid. Some have stated it is an abs problem and needs replacement?? |
