Default 98 Stratus brake problem??

Hi all,

I have a 98 Stratus. Yesterday I noticed that the car made a terrible noise when braking. But it only happened when I was going pretty slow (30 mph. or under) and braked. Braking from higher speeds didn't seem to be a problem. Anyone have any idea what could be going on?? It all of a sudden did that. Thanks!

Welcome to DF
First i would remove the tires and inspect the brakes. The rear brakes always has brake dust in the drums. Clean the dust out and use sand paper to rough up the shoes and drums.Then adjust the rear brakes. But ck the brakes and post your findings.
