Buick Rendezvous brakes not functioning despite new brake line installation on Buick Rendezvous

Problem overview

Some Buick Rendezvous owners report experiencing brake issues even after installing new brake lines, such as a soft brake pedal that may indicate a brake fluid leak, allowing air to enter the system and resulting in a spongy feel. Additionally, some report a pulsating brake pedal, which could be due to warped or unevenly worn brake rotors. Owners may also notice that the ABS light is illuminated, signaling a malfunction in the anti-lock braking system and potentially leading to brake failure if the BRAKE light is also on. Furthermore, a firm brake pedal that subsequently goes to the floor could suggest problems with a leaking master cylinder. It is advisable for owners facing these issues to seek a thorough inspection to identify the root cause of the braking problems.
