One thing you might want to check is the brake fluid. Your brake fluid reservoir has a sensor in it that lets you know when it is getting empty. By driving up hill it may be sensing that it is low so just check the level of the brake fluid. Be sure you do not overfill and follow directions in your owners manual for checking and filling brake fluid.
