If I’m reading this correctly and your brake pedal is very hard to press when you first start the car, you likely need a new “brake booster”. Power brakes need vacuum to work, and it sounds you have a vacuum leak in your booster. ---

> [@Britt53](#): > > is this a known issue? What could cause it? If you are asking if it specific to your vehicle No . Brake problems can happen to any vehicle . As for cause that is for a brake shop to find out and repair if you don’t know how to repair brakes.
