    This is an ongoing problem. Whenever i hit a pothole or a bump and i hit my brakes to slow down, the car makes this really loud grinding sound and the car does not stop at all and keeps accelerating. The only way i can get the brakes to engaged is by taking my foot off the brake completely and stepping on it again. *tr
