Prius c

When I am in the process of braking and hit a rough spot in the road such as a pothole, I essentially lose control of the car for a split second. It feels jerky like it lurches forward or shakes side to side. Its not very pronounced but enough to make me feel unsafe. This happens every time I am braking and run over potholes, so its not an isolated incident that only happened on one day, and it doesn't matter how hard I'm braking or how fast I'm going unless I'm barely moving (then it doesn't jerk).
