Has anyone experienced sudden brake fade?
For me its intermittent and when it happen my Mustang needs 3/4 brake pedal depressed to stop and one activated the ABS.
no lights or warnings on the dash.
I an going to have the dealer check if the pads are glazed over but really wondering if anyone had experienced it.
stops fine 95z% of the time. Very strange..

TIA —

Replace your brake fluid for peace of mind and just because. It's DOT 4 which is hygroscopic.

That likely isn't your problem since the issue happens "suddenly" but while I'm working on brakes, I'd replace the fluid, but that's just me.

I used to do it often when I raced bikes and it can make a huge difference sometimes.
