MY CAR WAS DRIVING JUST FINE UNTIL I WENT TO REVERSE OUT OF THE PARKING SPOT I WAS PARKED IN. I PUSHED THE BRAKE DOWN TO RELEASE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY BRAKE GOT HARDER TO PUSH DOWN. IT DISPLAYS ON MY SCREEN THE 'BRAKE' IS ON BUT IT'S NOT. IT ALMOST FEELS LIKE MY BRAKES WENT OUT BUT IT'S SO HARD TO PUSH THEM DOWN. LUCKILY IT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS IN A PARKING LOT RATHER THEN ON A MAIN ROAD OR EVEN THE HIGHWAY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT WAS MY BRAKE BOOSTER. IT'S NO WAY AFTER TWO YEARS OF HAVING THIS CAR THAT ANYTHING THIS SERIOUS WITH MY BRAKES SHOULD'VE HAPPENED AT ALL.
