No warning lights are showing but when I step on the brake they shudder like in emergency mode. I did replace a leaking disengagment switch. The pads and shoes are in good shape all the wheel cylinders were replaced ( sticking front & back but not leaking). As the car warms up the problem becomes worse. No codes on scanner.

Yes to all your questions. When I replaced the switch (disengagement) I just unscrewed the old and screwed in the new, that turned the yellow light out but everything else is the same as before.

Hi
Where the drums and rotors machined? The symptoms indicate drums out of round pedal pulsate and rotors out of true dash ans wheel shake. Need to have drums and rotors trued.
