My brakes take a while to slow my car down.

Hi Chelsea This is a tough one to answer ... I find I get this complaint most often after a newer car has been added to the family. The newer car stops better and so now the other car just doesn't feel like it's braking like it should. If no newer/better stopping cars have come into your life recently, then lets look at some other possible causes: When was the last time the brake fluid system was flushed out? If it's been more than three years, bleeding this system can sometimes improve pedal feel. A failing master cylinder can also cause this. Try pumping the brake pedal a few times when coming to a stop, if the pedal feel improves your brake master may have an internal leak. And finally, the rear brakes may be out of adjustment - this can also effect brake pedal feel.
