| While slowly rolling to a stop the brakes locked up and did not engage. i had to apply severe force to the brake pedal. when i applied the force the brake pedal resisted and popped back twice before the vehicle finally stopped. prior to this incident i have reported to vw and taken the vehicle in for issues with the transmission and the engine shaking. the car was returned to me 10 days prior to this incident. the two may or may not be related. | |||
