Hi All, quick question my daughter managed to take out a fence last evening in her 65 plate 500 Lounge , she mentioned that the brakes did not feel right and had a previous issue , any feedback would be welcome as she is only 17 and want to make sure safe going forward thanking you in advance.

Hi and welcome to the Forum.
There are many things that can affect the brakes including contamination and lack of vacuum for the servo. Unless you have some experience with repairing brake systems I suggest you take it to a garage. How long have you/she had the car and is there any warranty?

Hi Robert , thanks for your reply, took the car with delivery miles last Feb , it's hard for me to explain in detail what she felt when driving the car so i just posted to see whether there were any other drivers with issues with brakes on a 65 plate Lounge.

Kind regards,

Hi, and welcome,
does sound an odd occurrence ,

so it's definitely a 500L ? = " popemobile"

NOT the busiest part of the forum .. so sample owners are thin on the ground

We've had our 500 L trekking for 3 weeks no issues with brakes apart from being quite keen.
