Brake Drum Wheel Cylinder Problems of Dodge Avenger

My brake pedal is going on down and making a noise after I push the brake pedal to stop. There are nor ever has a warning light came on. A suggestion was my madter cylinder may be bad. I am going to have it replaced by my son. I can't afford to take it to a dealer. This had been going on for about 3 months but had gotten worse. Just wanted to report it in case there are others that may lead to recalls. Only 40,000 miles on car now, about 38,000 when problem started.

While driving through the mountains in maryland,I applied the brakes and the entire car shuddered. The rotors were apparently warped and the car was difficult to slow down or stop. The more the brake temperature increased the more difficult it became to slow the vehicle down. Most of the mileage on the car is highway or country roads, as I live in a suburban area. The brakes still act up in flat areas just not as bad as they did in the mountains. I have a six speed 2. 4l, 4 cylinder in the Avenger. Before and after having the transmission flushed the transmission would downshift hard between 3rd and 2nd gear and 2nd and 1st gear. When I backed out and put the car in drive, if you didn't wait for about three seconds prior to accelerating the transmission would slip then bang into gear a take off. The entire transmission was rebuilt but you still have to wait for it to lock into drive before taking off. The transmission was rebuilt with 36,000 miles on it.
