Brake Pedal Feels A Tad Bid Softer After Flush
I had a complete brake flush - bleed done today with Dot 4 fluid. I noticed that that the pedal feels a bit softer when stepping on the brake, and it seems to engage after about 1/4 or 1/3 the way down the pedal. Is this normal? I have 2009 TSX and I believe that this car has never been bled - the fluid looked orangy-browish.
Is it safe to drive? Do I need to flush again or is it normal that the pedal could feel a bit softer? Thanks!

Burning Brakes
Possibilities: low fluid, air in system, leak/kink in brake system
It's probably safe to drive if you have do and you take precautions.
My fluid is orange. I don't know what the next move should be.

Who did the flush? The most common reason for a soft pedal is air in the system.
Get it fixed NOW.
