Brake fade 2016A7

[MarkSCD]

Hello all, just had pads and rotors replaced for the second time on my 2016 A7. After the second replacement I've noticed that the car now requires significantly more distance to stop. The brakes feel really "spongy". Doesn't have the same bite as before.
Am I delusional? Anyone else experienced this?

I would check the brakes and bleed them to get any air out that might cause them to be sponge.

You have already had rotors and pads replaced twice on a 2016? Wow

Yes, first replacement was at 7K km. All four corners were replaced. I had a lot of vibration while braking at highway speeds.
They recently replaced the front rotors and pads. The brakes doesn't grab with the same intensity as before. Feels like undersized wheels on a heavy SUV

What a hassle. I'd take it back. I hope you get it ironed out quickly.

Still sounds like they didn't bleed the brakes properly.
