WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus and 2005 Chrysler Sebring. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Turn up the carpet etc. under the brake pedal.
- Start the engine, depress the brake pedal with approximately 490 N (110 pound) of force, and measure the clearance between the brake pedal and the floorboard.
Standard value: 90 mm (3.5 inches) or more [From the surface of melting sheet (floorboard) to the face of pedal pad]
- If the clearance is outside the standard value, check for air trapped in the brake line and thickness of the disc brake pad. And then adjust and replace defective parts as required.
- Return the carpet etc. to its original position.
