| Description of the problem | Brakes periodically grab severely when first driving the car. Usual occurrence is when first backing from garage or parking space and trying to ease the brake pedal. Brakes grab and prevent slowing the car smoothly. After driving for a dozen or so yards, problem doesn't reoccur--until is again parked for some time. This problem doesn't seem to be related to outside temperature/humidity but has existed over the past year since car was new. Now has 5000 miles. Returned to dealer twice but all tests reported ok and "could not duplicate" problem. |
