I couldn't find this issue in search, so I hope I'm not duplicating a thread.

After my Gen 2 Raptor has been sitting for a week or two, the brake pedal has to be pushed really hard to get the Start button light to come on. For some reason, the hydraulics aren't there. It's like the old days when your car stalls and you only get one or two easy pedal stops.

I have a Lincoln with push-button start and the startup pedal-travel/pressure to engage is normal, even after sitting for more than a month.

Is this a Raptor characteristic or is it an authentic issue? No fluid leaks that I can spot on the ground or at the lines.

Thanks.
