Your brake pedal now travels farther than usual and feels spongy. What is the appropriate response?
Correct answer: Have the braking system checked by a mechanic.
Why
Treat a new change in brake feel as a warning. SAAQ calls for a mechanic’s check if pedal travel is excessive, the pedal is not firm, the vehicle pulls while braking or unusual brake noise occurs. Do not use a high-speed road test to diagnose the problem.
