Sorry for the delay, I didn't see your post. Dealer said it's normal. However, I also had the mushy brake pepal (not parking brake) and I did a tip someone posted on another thread (ignition off, press hard on the brake pedal a few time) and my brake is much better now. I haven't tested on the parking brake but I think this will help.

Like mentioned above, set to neutral first helps.
