Service Brakes problem #1

I was just driving regular and the Rx350 started to jerk and apply the breaks by itself and slip and go side ways and the car behind me almost hit me because my Lexus started to stop hard and fast . Im pressing the gas but it’s not accelerating. The engine wanted to stop and very dangerous I’m scared to even drive the vehicle. I am the 3rd owner and now I know why the otheer people don’t want it . There is a recall for that problem but im new to the car recalls so im not to shure what to do to get the car repaired . I would like this fix especially because it is a recall . Thanks.

Service Brakes problem #2

There seems to be a barking noise when pressing the brakes even when engine is not on. Local shop could not diagnose the issue. I heard this could be the regenerative system that is expensive to repair. Braking seems ok but I am concerned as I thought there were some recalls on brake booster for this year but they say not on my car.
