    When braking from high speeds the car shakes and does not want to stop. I put both of my feet on the pedal as hard as i can. This happens unexpectedly and not all of the time. When just driving around town breaking is fine. No shake in the pedals. I took it to a dealership and they couldn't find a code. I also took to the mechanic ( afc certified). They said my pads are at 60% and the rotors were in good condition.

    Applied the brakes to the floor and it slid on an inclined road after being in a complete stop, resulting in rear ended straight the front vehicle.

I can't explain how the inclined surface didn't even help stop the car for it seems to still be going instead of stopping. It shouldn't have been such a bad…
