Pushed brake to start stopping, brakes shuttered. Let up on brake, then reapplied and it shuttered again. This continued. Checked brake fluid, it was down slightly, put in to fill. Problem better but still exists, now air compressor gone. . This car was bought in oct 2012 what a lemon. Thank goodness it is a lease. Noise under car since day bought.
