The van is experiencing very poor braking again. The brakes pads and rotors were just recently replaced at 58600 miles. *ak consumer states that the brakes often go to the floor even though the master cylinder and porportional valve were replaced.
The brake pedal gets stuck to the floor when depressing the brake pedal. To get the brake pedal unstuck have to manually pull the brake pedal up from the floor with hands. During the time the brake pedal goes to the floor, there are no brakes at all. *ak
