Cougar

Intermittent brake failure. Brakes failed, almost causing collision at 65 mph. After pumping pedal, brakes returned to normal. Contacted dealer, was told nothing was wrong w/ car based on test drive alone. Was told it was $40 to put it on the lift to check brake system, regardless of manufacturer warranty. Please advise.
