I was stuck in slow-moving traffic going downhill, gradually releasing and applying the brakes to creep along, one car length at a time. (No accelerator at all.)
Over about 10 minutes, the brakes took on a very "binary" feel -- they were either grabbing hard, or fully released, and I couldn't gently apply them. They became very "grippy" and abrupt. I tried releasing completely, but didn't get any improvement.
I put the car in park for 10 seconds or so, and then Drive, and everything was fine.
Anyone else experience something like this?
Just to restate -- at no time did I feel "unsafe", I just had very little analog control of the brakes. With cars close behind, I didn't want to experiment further.
