Please re-read my statement: "it is normal for the brake pedal to sink
SLIGHTLY" when the vehicle is at rest. You will notice this in most cars -
in part, because there is no load on the brakes. If your brake pedal sinks
all the way to the floor, and you are in motion, you may want to make a call
to that undertaker friend of yours - you have a problem.

Since when is it normal for ANY car to have the brake pedal sink to the
floor ????? That Lexus engineer is probably just a shill for the
undertaker down the street.

Excellent Jeff ! You have now clarified that there is a problem when
the pedal sinks to the floor if the car is in motion. Previously you
said that it is normal for a brake pedal to sink slightly with the car
at rest and then went on to describe how a sensitive, loving, caring
dealer should take care of his customers who have some emotional
discomfort from such problems. You did seem to be ignoring the fact
that the sinking of a brake pedal to the floor is a real problem and
not just an emotional problem. Glad you clarified the situation. Just
for the record, a brake pedal sinking to the floor whether the car is
in motion or not is really bad and means the car should not be driven.
And for what it is worth, I do agree with you that the Lexi dealers
should be nice about problems because there are lots of cheaper cars
out there and it would be a shame for them to loose business.
