Description of the problem	I was on the highway and all of the warning lights came on "check vsc system" was displayed on the dashboard. I had to push very hard on the breaks to make the car stop and luckily i did not crash into anyone. It's happened in the middle of driving in the neighborhood, on the freeway, even when i was parked in the garage! I turned the engine on and before i put it in drive or reverse, all the warning lights would display and the breaks would fail. Now the new problem is every time i step on the breaks, my car 'barks' or 'chirps' repeatedly at me. I can push lightly and get less of a bark but for the most part, it takes a great deal of effort to stop the vehicle. My father is a mechanic and he's hooked up the computer to the car but since the 'check vsc system" is not displayed when it's hooked up, he can't tell what the problem is. In an unrelated complaint, when the weather gets hot, around 80 degrees, the stereo system goes blank and spits out all of my cds and will not turn on. Then it will have lines across the screen and display "scan" on the upper right hand corner. It will not turn off or on unless i use the controls on the steering wheel. After it cools, it will work again.
