1) everytime i brake, the whole car lean forward (nose dive), anyone know if this is caused by my rear brakes?(seems like my front brakes do all the work)
2) my e-brake is so weak that i barely feel it when i pull it up while driving, is this normal? if not how can i adjust it?

thx for help, btw i drive 2k1 lx sedan

I'm hearing a lot of this lately, mine was doing the same thing with only 6000 miles I had the rear brakes adjusted not only did it quit nose diving but my parking brake was a lot tighter and the brake pedal was higher.

thx, i'll definitely tell the dealer to take a look at it when i go there for the 10,000mile service (have 7500miles now).

I'd get into the dealer ASAP, if your rear brakes are out of adjustment, your front brakes are taking a lot of abuse. Get it checked soon, because its possible you might over heat your front brakes over time and warp the Rotors, and I'm saying over time, not right away, so don't freak out. I couldn't believe how much my rear brakes were out of adjustment, once I had them done it was like a new handling car.

Yeah, I seem to have noticed that my e brake was a lot tighter after I took it in for the first service...I guess they tighten it or something....
