    Brakes are stoping thr thr car as it should but as it slows down until the car is almost to a stand still the brakes jerks and can be felt on the peddles. At that moment the brake peddle gets lighter as it felt like the ABS has been activated.

    Has anyone experience that or can help identify the issues cause it? Brake pads are good and we blled the brakes system few times already.

    Is there any vibration at lower speeds?
    At slow speed slowly apply the brake does it feel like is partially gripping?
    Is there any clunking noise.

    These are symptoms of warped or cracked rotors.

    It could be electrical, but someone with more knowledge will have to answer that.

    At first glance Im with Bracket. Im thinking glazed rotors/pads and they are chattering when nearly stopped.

    Your rotors are warped, get them machined. About $50 a pair

    Did you bleed the 2 ABS bleed points within the cabin if you have them ? (according to manual)

    Also what happens if you hard brake (emergency brake) does the steering wheel jerk from side to side that can also confirm if its warp rotors..
