Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 2006 bmw 325i miles: 5k on july 19th, 2006 approx 9:00 am, while i was parking at my office parking lot going about 5 to 10 mph, after i entered the parking stall, i started to apply the brake. the brake pedal felt soft (normally the pedal is stiff), and it wasn't stopping, so i pressed it all the way to the floor. the car felt like it sped up a bit and hit the vehicle directly in front of me. luckily, no one was in the car and the damage was minor front bumper damage, both to mine and the other vehicle. after i hit other vehicle, i put it in reverse to pull away, then my brake pedal felt normal and came to a complete stop. *jb
