Description of the problem	On friday, october 21, 2016 while driving over a pothole i pressed on the brake. The car slowed but all of a sudden the brake suddenly depressed even further down and the car jerked and seemed to stall before pushing forward. I had been pressing the brake as far down as it would go and it seemed as if there would be some kind of brake failure. On october 31, 2016 while driving over another pothole, i again stepped on the brake and suddenly the pedal again depressed further down and there was a creaking and squealing sound. Then on november 4, 2016 while going over a pothole, there was a squealing and creaking sound but not a sudden additional depression of the brake pedal.
