Consumer Description

WHEN DRIIVING 2003 RENDEZVOUS WHEN TRYING TO STOP THERE IS A LOUD CRUNCHING SOUND AND THUMPING PULSATING FROM BRAKE AS IF IT IS FORCING IT BACK UP. I HAVE TO STUMP BRAKES ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR TO STOP. MECHANIC CAN NOT TELL WHATS WRONG WITH IT. ALMOST DROVE INTO 4 LANES OF CROSS TRAFFIC. CAR WOULD NOT STOP. HAD BRAKES CHANGED AND IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. THIS IS VERY SCARY AND HEART POUNDS. MY ONLY SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION SO I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. ALSO WHEN MAKING A TURN AND USING BRAKES IT IS WORST. VERY FRIGHTENING AT ANY SPEED.
