1 Brake Disc problem

Failure Date: 03/13/2001

On at least two occasions, while driving in heavy rain, stepping on the brake pedal produced no braking action for 1-2 seconds. At highway speeds this is unacceptable. Dealer was informed and attempted to reproduce on a dry day. I knew they would not be successful, but wanted to go on record with them as having reported the problem. Other late model Miata owners have reported this problem.
