Break paddle to hard to press down

It's the 3rd time my 07 mcsa's break paddle become so hard to press down to start after I came back from a week of business trip. Has anyone experience that?

It sounds like you are up the creek with a broken oar.

Sorry! I haven't seen/heard of this problem before.

How long does the symptom last?

Break paddle

Do you mean brake pedal? Talk to the dealer.
