brakes release

Well since I've had this car the only really major problem I've had with it is the braking system, while braking if you hit the slightest bump or dip on these raggedy streets the brakes release, if you are trying to stop on snow or just the smallest patch of ice the brakes release, if you're driving in the rain and go to apply the brakes if they don't slide they release.. I have had it checked out several times no one can seem to find a problem with this. I have the brakes changed every year and the rotors since I had the car. Please give advice on this. Also the front end shakes when doing certain speeds, it seems to sooth once you have the brakes replaced but it doesn't last long after that. if you have suggestions please feel free to elaborate, I don't mind.. FYI, I didn't put the VIN# because I don't know it. Thanks for your help..
