When coming to a stop it feels like the brakes are grabbing briefly and then releasing.

Hi,

Have you inspected the conditions of the brakes? Are there any noises associated with braking?

Often times, a warped brake rotor can give that sensation. Even a brake drum that is out of round can do it. Do you have any vibrations in the steering wheel or brake pedal when you apply the brakes?

Let me know.
