So, I took transportation of a Jimny Alpha AT connected 2nd of July. Owing to discounts connected MY2023 Jimnys. Mine is September 2023 Manufactured.
PDI was done. But my bad, I couldn't observe the problems that I americium facing now.

So, the Jimny brake pedal goes hard aft the car is parked and motor is switched off.

I know, erstwhile the motor is switched off, with nary progressive vacuum procreation from the intake, the car brake booster volition yet tally retired of vacuum oregon if we pump the brake pedal 3-4 times with the motor switched off. Then the brake pedal goes hard.

But successful my case, the brake pedal goes hard aft I parkland my car, power disconnected the engine. I person not touched the brake pedal aft the motor was switched off. I would person been good if the pedal went hard to property aft 2-3 days of inactivity. But successful my case, the pedal goes hard successful little than an hr of parking the car.

Once I property the hard brake pedal and commencement the engine. The brake pedal depresses and works similar normal. Although I consciousness the braking happens with the pedal pressed 80-90%. Stopping powerfulness feels bully but not overmuch of stopping powerfulness is felt with conscionable a flimsy property of the brakes. Maybe this is normal, I americium not sure.
But the brake pedal going hard successful nether 1 hr of inactivity is not mean for sure. I fishy a faulty cheque valve oregon a failing brake booster. Also. I don't enactment successful immoderate precocious altitude determination truthful bladed ambiance and truthful little vacuum can't beryllium blamed.
I person been driving the car since the play only. At archetypal I thought I mightiness beryllium overthinking oregon mightiness person made a mistake but no, sadly, it has this problem.

Now, the 2nd contented is the instrumentality alignment. The car has a near pull. With the steering astatine the center, the car conscionable fails to spell straight. It pulls to the left. I thought this mightiness beryllium due to the fact that of the slant of our roadworthy from the divider to the near of the roadworthy but connected level road, I bash find steering instrumentality not pointing consecutive erstwhile I Intend to spell consecutive albeit to a lesser degree.

I volition nonstop my car to Nexa work tomorrow. Will update here.
Any different BHPian facing akin issue?
