A method according to the present disclosure includes identifying a failure in functionality of the primary braking system, and upon identifying the failure, mitigating an abrupt increase in a pedal travel distance required to brake or otherwise decelerate the vehicle so as to provide a smooth transition from a primary braking mode to a fallback braking mode. Mitigating the increase in the pedal travel distance may include initiating a transition to the fallback braking mode, activating at least one of a plurality of transition braking modes, and gradually increasing the pedal travel distance by deactivating at least one of the at least one previously activated transition braking modes.
