Brake pedal pushes back and makes weird electric motor noise

Only right before I come to a stop the brake pedal makes a weird noise and pushes back. I haven't see the abs light come on and I just replaced the rotors and pads. It started happening right after I changed my pads and rotors. Does anyone know what could be doing this.

Who did the brake work? Seems to me some dirt or metal filings got on to one of the sensors. They are magnetized! The other posibility is the front wheel bearings are not adjusted properly.

It happened to be a speede sensor.
Go to a FORD dealership service center, they are the only oneswho carry it, faIrly simple task, have the guys at ford explain what to do :)

by the way, your cost for that sensor will be between 50-70 bucks
