Brakes failed initially at about 30 miles, at about 40mph I hit brakes lightly, brakes didn't work, brake pedal felt rough and abs light illuminated. Several seconds later abs light turned off and brakes felt as if they were working again. This happened again several hundred miles later and was similar. About 200 miles after that I once hit the brakes hard to slow down, they felt rough and didn't work. Brakes have worked since. I assumed that the brakes needed to be broken in. I was reluctant to mention it because the dealer's service department can rarely duplicate or troubleshoot a problem. Today I spoke to the shop foreman and he was able to pull codes from the brake controller and found a failure code. The dealer was not able to work on the vehicle today so I will be bringing it back ASAP.
