Brake pedal moves to 2-3 inches before it will begin to brake, and pedal travels too far down. This defect causes increased reaction time. Dealer and manufacturer claim it was designed like that.
Brakes are extreemely spongy and fade significantly requiring far greater stopping distance than anything I've ever driven. Pumping the pedal seems to help but pushing firmly activates the abs which causes vehicle to lurch toward whatever is in front of you. I've never driven a vehicle where the abs kicks in so frequently.
