ON FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 11, 2015 I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE AT 35 MPH, AND TRIED PRESSING THE BRAKES SO I COULD TURN SOON. WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKES THEY WENT ALL THE WAY DOWN AND THE CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN AT ALL. I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR, BECAUSE WHILE I WAS TURNING THE CAR JERKED BACK AND THEN FORWARD REALLY HARD. THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED WAS AT A STOP SIGN. I ALMOST HIT THE CAR GOING STRAIGHT BECAUSE THE CAR WOULDN'T STOP AND THE BRAKES WOULD JUST GO ALL THE WAY DOWN. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENED 2 TIMES IN A ROW.
