| Description of the problem | I have a 2017 base. The distance the brake peddle travels before the brakes engage seems very long. About 1/2 way down. The brakes then work fine. If i pump the brake once the peddle seem to rise to an acceptable level and the brakes seem stronger. I took it to porsche and they said the brakes are fine. The only time i have ever encountered this before in other cars is with air in line or bad master. Has anyone else had this problem ? It takes extra time for the brakes to activate which can lead to an accident |
