Has anyone else had issues with brakes?

Hey guys,

My girlfriend was driving my BRZ yesterday when the brakes stopped working. The car slowed and then suddenly didn't slow any more and the car kept rolling at 10-15km/h, she pushed the pedal to the floor (which was really soft) but the car didn't stop.

We had it towed to Subaru and they said they couldn't find a problem.

They said they are going to bring out a regional manager to have a look.

If they say that the car is fine on Monday, I am still apprehensive to drive it because luckily, this time it happened at low speed but what if it happens on the highway etc.

I bought this car back in 2013 and it only has 15000km on it. It is still covered under factory warranty but Subaru either can't find the problem or refuse to acknowledge it. The brake pedal is squishy now, but the brakes sort of work. It used to be a lot harder/more sensitive.

Any advice?

Thanks
