General Comments

I've got a 54 Fiat Punto 1.2 ELX with less than 5k miles on the clock. The brakes keep failing, and making a banging noise. The dealership from which I bought it doesn't seem bothered that this is a serious fault and keep telling me that this is normal for Punto's. The brake pedal goes rock solid, I get a banging noise and then the pedal dissapears under my foot and I have no brakes. Can this seriously be the norm?
