Default WTF

I had to hit the brakes hard going down the highway today and as you guys know from my previous post I have had problems with them shaking from I think the rotors. Well I hit them and the road was a little wet so the tires seemed to slide a little well then the whole ******* car cut off. Luckily I was able to cost to the side and it started right back up when I tried to start it but wtf. When you hit the brakes hard does it cut off?

...I don't know about that... but if you think your rotors are not so good anymore, you should get them "resurfaced".... that will stop wheel shaking and uneven wearing on the brake pads!!!

I have some Brembo rotors I have had sitting until the current ones went bad those and Axis pads I'm just waiting until a shop can put them on. It has only really been bad the last few days although it has done it slightly for a while just not this bad.

I can do the pads myself but don't think I'm up to doing the rotors on the hub over rotor setup.

I think this cutting off is fucked up and I'm wondering if anyone else has had this happen or if something is wrong.

..my older accord had the steering wheel shaking when I had to hit the brakes... because the rotors were messed up....
Cutting off the rotors requires a machine, that you will only find at places that work with brakes and stuff like that...
After I got the rotors resurfaced, car was new again.... and no noise or steering wheel shaking when hitting the brakes!!!
