A vehicle brake system 10 has a brake pedal assembly 14, a sensor 18 or 22 for sensing effort applied to the brake pedal assembly and a brake actuator 26 for generating braking force to be applied to one or more brakes 12A-12D on the vehicle. The brake system further includes a position sensor for sensing a position signal, such as an adjustable brake pedal position sensor 40, a seat position sensor 42, a steering wheel position sensor 44, or a driver position sensor 46, which is generally indicative of the stature and/or comfort of the driver. The brake system further includes a controller 24 for automatically controlling the amount of braking force applied to the one or more brakes in the vehicle as a function of the sensed position. Accordingly, the brake system automatically adjusts the braking effort based on a sensed position signal.
