On multiple occasions in the last few days, the brakes have failed to respond (extreme force is needed to push down on the brake pedal), which delays braking time/distance significantly. This is happening specifically when trying to disengage from cruise control. This almost caused a crash. The car had a break booster recall in 2017 and this repair was completed at that time.
Went to activate cruise control using the buttons on the steering wheel. Would not activate even after repeated attempts. Took it to dealer who exclaimed "recall" but after checking, he said the recall doesn't apply to my vehicle. Then found out other options do not work either. Plan on taking to a different dealer to have rechecked. This "defect happens whether moving or not. I became aware of this while on hwy 45 going from milwaukee to hartford, wis but showed it to the russ darrow dealer upon my return while stationary in his shop.
