Brake Pedal acting up....
Alright I need some opinions;
I was pulling my car out of the garage this morning and when I would press onto the Brake pedal it sounded like a pump. As if I was pumping air into a basketball or something and I would feel air coming onto my foot when the brake pedal was pressed. What can this be? It's very strange. |

I would take it to the dealer, don't take chances with your brakes.

wonder if it was some kind of abs system test. anything unusual about the way you started and moved it?

Is there a rubber boot around the brake pedal at the firewall? Could be as simple as it came loose from the firewall and the ambient air inside it is now blowing on your foot and you can hear it when you depress the pedal.

Mine makes a really, really fast "ta ta ta" when im going in reverse and apply the brakes. Only does it once in a while, really weird, but braking is perfect none the less. is this something to worry about?

Nice to know I'm not alone on this one. I should be home within the hour to check on that rubber boot 10Forty2 was talking about

I hear electric cars NEVER do that, if that helps any.

I feel that if I took it in for this, it wouldn't do it while at the shop. Then I would bet my car back with a new chip in the paint, like last time.
