Brakes problem
2001 Hyundai Accent Front Wheel Drive Automatic

hi, i dirve a hyundai accent 2001 and ive got a weird problem with my brakes... recently i had a tiny problem with brakes whenever i step on them in very low speed i felt that the brake catches in some points stronger than other, so they told me to change my brakes ,i changed the front pads and was told that the rotors are fine but yet still had this little problem, so i decided to change the rear brake pads and drums ,i did so and now the problem has gotten much bigger on high speed when i brake i get my brake pedal and steering all shaking for a short period ,my mechanic told me on phone that it must be the front brake , so i had to try to pull my handbrake and realize that its making my steering shake ,then i asked him again he said its weird and might be the rear drums defected , i replaced them with new ones and still the same problem , its getting weird and annoying the fact that everybody knows only front brakes shake your steering and i donno what to do now...i dont trust mechanics in my place they just wanna rip you off by trying to install this and that and the only thing i concluded its not front brakes cause everything was fine up untill i changed my rear brakes and the fact that my handbrake makes things shake too
