Shakes or Wobbles problem
2001 Ford Focus 4 cyl Automatic

My Ford Focus has been vibrating for a while now but it hadnt been a big problem. Usually it would shake during the cold seasons. But, about 4 days ago I was at a red light and noticed not the usual shaking. It was still vibrating but it was pulsing back and forth. This only happens when my foot is on the break. If I put it in park, it stops. Yesterday I was at a restaurant drive through with my foot on the break and the car died. But then turn on easily but not getting rid of the pulsing. Any suggestions?
