Default Help....Im a noob....soft brake feel

Hello everyone,

The car was driving good for couple days and on the third day the brake,ABS,vsc,vsc off signs came on. The brake paddle is really hard and there is no brakes what so ever,

Did u bleed the brake lines? Check the lines...see if any were installed wrong....make sure they aren't stretched when turning the wheels.

Pete is right, you should bleed your lines. Hopefully you don't have a air bubble in your calipers.
