2001 Cavalier base - auto. My daughter told me her brakes are acting strangely the first 2 - 3 times using them after driving off.
I tested the car down the street and began braking for the stop sign. The brakes slowed the car as expected at first then glided for about 8-10 feet then kicked in again, bringing the car to a stop. Turned around and went back down the street - same thing again. After that brakes were fine.
The glide part wasn't a total freewheel, it felt like slipping two smooth surfaces over each other.
Please help if you have any clues as to what this might be.
