Lexus NX brake pedal feedback low fluid

I own a 2018 Lexus NX with a gasoline engine and have noticed a strange feedback from the brake pedal. The brake fluid level is also low, according to the warning light. The car currently has 37968 km on the clock. Could this be related to normal wear and tear?

Hey there, I had something similar happen with my NX. The brake pedal felt kinda weird, and the fluid was low too. How old are your brakes? Could be you just need new pads.

Thank you for your quick response. I am not sure about the age of the brakes. I assume they are the factory ones. Is this a serious issue that requires immediate attention, or can it wait a bit?

Definitely get it checked ASAP. It's probably worn brakes like I had, but low brake fluid is never good. I kept driving on mine, and ended up almost rear-ending someone. The pedal feel just kept getting worse. I ended up paying around 480€ all in at the workshop! Don't risk it.

Understood. Thank you for sharing your experience. I will book an appointment with a workshop to inspect the brake system as soon as possible. This was very helpful!
