The Porsche Taycan's brakes have always been soft. Recently, at slow speeds, I have had to pump the brakes to stop. The last time, I had to turn off the road to prevent an accident. The tow truck driver, who brought my car to Englewood NJ Porsche stated I had no brakes. Porsche of Englewood called me after their evaluation stating the car was fine and could not find a brake problem. I told him that the internet had multiple complaints that the Taycan brakes would not work at slow speeds and that it was found to be the brake booster that was malfunctioning. I am not the only person to experience this. Please look into this problem. [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

There was a different amount of pressure needed to apply to the break when at lower speeds vs higher speeds. At lower speeds there was less responsiveness to the breaks and more pressure was required to stop the car. We brought the car to the dealer and dealer reported the car was fine. The problem persisted and an error message came on that said "break fluid low- bring to dealer". The car was brought into dealer again and the dealer flushed the break system and put new fluid in. The problem continued to persist and the dealer replaced the break booster fixing this issue. Our safety was at risk because the breaks were malfunctioning.
