Description of the problem	Hello, the brakes on the new 2013 jetta hybrid are very difficult to control. When i told my dealer, i was told that the brakes behaved as intended. A google search for "jetta hybrid brakes feel weird" showed multiple reports on strange behaving brakes. I think this is a safety issue. I cannot come to a smooth, steady stop. Either it is too fast or too slow and i have to slam on the brakes at the end. I think vw should be required to make the brakes on the jetta hybrid safer and retrofit vehicles already on the road. Thank you for your consideration.
