In motion. The brakes became more and more spongy. Upon inspection I found the studs that hold the master brake cylinder to the booster, one was broken off and the other had a loose nut.

With normal traffic braking front brake start to shutter and brake pedal with pulse making it difficult to stop the vehicle even during a normal stopping action we have had several times where the vehicle has been hard to stop during emergency situation which required excess pressure on the brake pedal to stop. Changed rotors and brake pads between the year 2066- and most recently 2014 4 times which still has not corrected the condition. The vehicle has 48900 mile on the vehicle. This vehicle need to be evaluated for safety defects that could cause a serious injury or death.

This particular problem starts when I'm on a major highway and have to make an "immediate action required" braking maneuver at higher speeds of 65-70mph.(slower vehicle in front of you = panic stop, exiting to an off ramp and a hard stop) when braking hard the cars brakes sounds like the ABS system can't get a grip so to speak and the whole car shudders.the car brakes but sounds like your wearing something out. I have had a mechanic test drive the car but he could not replicate the condition. I had new rotors put on to no avail. The condition continues as of today under those conditions I've mentioned. I will live with the problem. Thank-you
