What might be the result of too weak pressure on the brake pedal of a passenger car?

aLengthening of the braking distance.
bBlocking of the wheels.
cLosing steerability.

Why?

Pressing the pedal too lightly produces insufficient braking force, so the car needs more distance to stop. Wheel locking and the resulting loss of steering control can occur when braking is too hard for the available grip, rather than when pedal pressure is too low.
