Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: When driving in the rain, brakes did not slow car for up to 3 seconds after application of brake pedal (no matter how hard i pushed). once the brakes start working, they feel normal, but if you don't use them for a few minutes, the brakes will do the same thing again, and again. it seems that the harder it rains, the more pronounced the temporary lack of stopping power, and the longer the delay until the brakes achieve friction.*ak
