Air Brake problem

My Hyundai is new with only 7k miles. Brakes repeatedly grind with a crunching noise in snowy conditions to point where I have difficulty stopping vehicle. Pulls to right and steering wheel shakes to point where you can see it moving from a distance. Feels like pedal is locking and brakes are not working properly making vehicle very unsafe. I've been driving for over 35 years and owned many different vehicles and have never experienced anything like this in a braking system. Hyundai dealership claims *normal* for a Hyundai however I test drove another new Accent this morning to compare under the exact same road conditions and it did not shake, grind, pull to the right like mine does and it stopped when I applied the brakes. I drove all over the lot to try and get it make noise or fail to stop but it felt perfect. I again got back into my car and my car again shook, grinded and did not stop near as quickly as the other Accent yet service manager denies there was any difference. If I get in an accident because I was not able to stop, I am sueing the dealership. Dealership is taylor Hyundai in perrysburg, ohio.
