Mushy brake pedal

[vst]

Hey guys my jeep was sitting for about a month while I had to figure out an issue with my rear gears and bearings got that all fixed and now I have a mushy soft brake pedal it presses down further than before. Before I had a firm responsive pedal I've checked there's no leaks and brake fluid is topped off. Im going to have a dealer look at it on Monday but has anyone else experienced this im hoping they just need to be bled.

There is a few others that had the problem. Think the fix was to bleed the brakes with the ABS active. There is a youtube video on it.

I had the same problem and fixed it
An ABS bleed will probably fix it
This will explain how to get air out of the system plus other brake upgrades I did

Will a dealer do the abs bleed?

Probably Not
The dealer told me that the brakes where normal
A 4x4 shop should be able to do a ABS bleed for you

Just a heads up I had my dealer do an ABS bleed and the pedal feels much better doesn’t press half way down now before you start to feel the breaks
