breaking problems

I've got a 2000 sunfire that when I break it feels like I am pumping the break pedal. I had the breaks serviced about six months ago. Any ideas on what could it be?

Re: breaking problems

I have a 97 and I had that problem before and found that my back brakes had small cracks in them. However, I've been havin that problem again but I didnt find cracks or anything else. I would check for cracks first before anything. If you find out whats wrong let me know cause I can use some help too.

Re: breaking problems

Start by checking your brake fluid, make sure it isn't low. Did this problem just start? Also, check for leaks in the brake lines.

Re: breaking problems

get your rotors checked, they may be warped if they are they make that pumping feeling

Re: breaking problems

rotors in those cars warp quickly its a good idea to spend the extra money to get vented front rotors at a perfomance shop they last twice as long. Or take it back to the shop they may have put the calipers on with a brake line twisted
