Well, it sounds like you might have air trapped in your brake lines, which can cause the brake pedal to feel spongy or rise higher on the second pump. Don't worry, it's a common issue that can be easily fixed by bleeding the brakes to remove any air bubbles. Just take your time and follow the proper steps, and soon your brakes will be working smoothly again. Happy little brakes, just like happy little trees.

You may need to have the brakeline bled (drained of brake fluid) and add new brake fluid while making sure brakeline is air free. This is usually done by pumping the brake until the pedal becomes appropriately firm . Hope this helps .
