I've had that happen with a couple of vehicles after I changed the
brake shoes or pads and didn't bleed their cylinders. Bleeding
always stopped the pedal from sinking.

After I bleed brakes, I close all the bleeder screws and pump the
pedal hard a few times. Then I open each screw, and usually no
fluid comes out right away, indicating there was still some air
inside.
Badly adjusted brakes will have a low pedal on first push, and come
up and be firm on second. Poorly bled brakes will come up a bit on
each succuessive push but will never be "firm"

Adjusted? I haven't owned a car with brake shoes in my lifetime. I
doubt Micky's import has shoes. And never seen a disc brake that you
could adjust.
