What NHTSA recorded

During vehicle operation in heavy rain, there may be a noticeable initial reduction in the effectiveness of the rear disc brake, followed by a gradual recovery to normal, dry condition effectiveness. If pedal force is not increased to compensate, longer stopping distances will result. If pedal force is not reduced after recovery, a rear wheel skid could result.

Remedy

The dealer will replace rear brake pads with pads which will improve braking performance in wet weather.
