The brakes did work. I was just caught off guard by how little they worked even with massive force. I had never experienced anything like that before. The pedal felt spongy and lumpy with no discernible stopping force, then with the pedal all the way to the floor the car would stop with abruptly. But this was only tried at less than 10 mph. Loosing the progressive feel of the brake pedal was what really scared me.
