Last month, in june, i had a problem with my 2010 toyota corolla. I pulled out of a parking lot and was not going fast. I was approaching a steep hill and wanted to brake but i could not. In order to stop the car and avoid the hill, i crossed to the other side of the street into someone's lawn in order to give the car enough friction to stop. I ended up hitting a slope and the car stopped... But not from my brakes.…

I have a 2010 corolla with brake issues. Whenever i go over a pothole or other bump at low speeds (under 25mph), the car makes a grinding 'metal on metal' noise. It feels kind of like tingling under your foot... Similar to a pulse. The car 'jumps forward' a small bit before it slows down to a stop. I find the 'jumping' issue very unsettling. It is like the car accelerates slightly even though you are using the…
