It could be a leaking vacuum hose to the power brake booster or the membrane in the booster could have a hole. When the brakes are applied, the booster is opened to the engine vacuum via the hose. The vacuum leak would then increase, causing the engine to stall.

Your Honda CRV 2001 sometimes stalls out at a stop sign when the brakes are applied what could be wrong and potential fixes Thanks for any help?

Engine stalling when applying brakes is usually indicative of a leaky brake booster. The brake booster uses and stores engine vacuum while driving to assist your braking effort (power brakes). When the booster's air diaphragm is leaking air, applying brakes causes a substantial vacuum leak in the intake manifold, causing the engine to stall.

This can happen if the water or coolant level in the radiator is low. There are other causes but this is the most common.


What causes brakes to make noises?

Disc brakes do not have springs to retract the pads form the rotors, therefore they are millimeters from touching and even dust can make them hiss. However if they screech when applying, this is usually the wear indicator rubbing against the rotor warning you to replace the pads.
