What owners wrote

Approximately right after I purchased the car, I began having trouble with the brake. The brake system is harder than normal; when I apply pressure to the brake pedal, it feels like it has several layers until I push it to the end. It feels like it doesn't respond right away. Also, the brake is giving me a strong respond, so I feel the car is shaking significantly when I do an immediate stop. Also, when I apply pressure to the brake, the motion of the car rush forward and slide down before it responds correctly.
