When idling at a traffic light or stopped in traffic, with foot on brake in normal position, car occasionally jumps and inches very slightly forward. To prevent this from happening driver must be pressing very very firmly on brake to the point where driver feels tension in her leg. This has happened approximately a dozen times since car purchased in February.
