| Description of the problem | This may or may not be a safety issue. However, when i make a stop and release the brake pedal a loud noise (thump) occurs. This happens at every stop i make. I have taken the car to two local dealers. One made an inspection the other did not and both responded with the same comment "we don't know". One mechanic told me he thought a recall had been issued on the "break pedal support assembly". I have been unable to locate the recall if it exist. I would appreciate any information you can supply as this continuous "thump" is most irritating and i am concerned about any unusual occurrence in connection with a braking system. |
