WHEN I PRESS ON THE BRAKE HARD AND CONTINUALLY THERE IS A NOISE (THUMP). MY HUSBAND HAS TAKEN THE CAR IN WHERE WE BOUGHT THE CAR 3X'S AND WAS TOLD THIS IS NORMAL ON THE FRONT BRAKES. I AM NOT HAPPY WITH THAT ANSWER. I JUST WANT TO KNOW IS THIS NORMAL FOR THE CAR I BOUGHT. IS IT SAFE. THE CAR IS BEAUTIFUL AND TO DRIVE AROUND AND HEAR A NOICE WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKE IS NOT ACCEPTABLE ON SUCH A BEAUTIFUL CAR. I HAVE AN AUDIO OF THE SOUND I'M HEARING WHILE BREAKING. AND A VIDEO OF THE MECHANIC AT THE DEALERSHIP SAYING THIS WAS ACCEPTABLE NORMAL. I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR 10-29-2019.
