Description of the problem	My brakes lose pressure if i hit a bump when braking or if i slide on something while braking. After the brakes lose pressure i have to pump they brakes until the pressure builds back up which usually takes a day or so. Today i slid in the snow and couldn't stop and slid into oncoming traffic, luckily i was able to correct and avoid a crash but not there is minimal pressure in my brakes which makes it difficult to judge stopping the snow while pumping brakes. Previously this has happened when was stopping and hit a piece of cardboard on the pavement and couldn't stop and went into the intersection. I have to make sure i don't brake on bridges where the bridge connectors are because this also causes the brakes to lose pressure. The only time the brakes lose pressure is if i am braking when i hit a bump or something that makes me slide. This has been going on for about a year but i didn't know how to file a complaint until i saw the article last week, today it actually happened again so i am dating this today.
