Just got Fabia Monte Carlo but brakes very severe at low speed. Has been in to garage but little improvement. Now contacted Škoda customer service as others have reported same problem on different forums.

  Hi, I’m Bob I posted the enquiry about the break problem with my fabia, I have spoken to a very experienced mechanic and apparently this is a common problem with the fabia, he reckons that they have used unnecessary bigger servos, he doesn’t think there’s much you can do about it, don’t know if you could change it, if you’re car is in warranty I would push Skoda to see if they could rectify it, it’s a shame because there excellent cars.

It sounds like both Bob and @user_1171249 are experiencing some concerning braking issues with their SKODA Fabia IV models. Bob, you might want to consider checking your disc pads as they could be a possible culprit for the sharp braking at slow speeds. Sometimes, a simple change of disc pads can make a significant difference in braking performance. @user_1171249, reaching out to Škoda customer service was a smart move, especially if others are facing similar problems. It's essential to address safety concerns promptly. Have you considered trying high-quality aftermarket disc pads? They might offer improved performance for your Fabia Monte Carlo.
