What else can I help you with?
What do you do if your car makes a thumping when you apply the brakes and slows at the same speed as the car?
If it is coming out of the front, it sounds like a loose brake caliper, or loose brake pads. I would get it looked at asap. sounds like disk was overheated and neads to be turned down. It usaually can be done once or twice before it needs replaced. If you ride the brakes or, going downhill hold the breaks and don't allow them ot cool. it'll overhead the rotor and they'll warp. Kind of like a clutch plate in a manual transmission. It'll caost around $100.00 for rotor and disk pads for the front end. ok it may be simplar than that! my 91 Mazda did the same thing. if you car has (ABS) brakes then it may be the relay. mine was out; replaced it and now it stops. answer sounds like your rotars are out of round or cracked. to check this , remove wheel , look at rotars blue spots will indicate overheating and distotrion most cracks are visable

Recently had front brakes and rotars replaced. New noise came after rain storm today. Sounds like grinding while driving and worse while braking.. Could the rain cause brakes to squeak?
Yes rain along with other debris and contaminants from the road, especially in rain can cause in some cases quite a bit of noise from your brakes. If you're sure that your brakes are OK. It is usually caused by something getting stuck on or between the pad and rotor and should go away after driving for a little while. Otherwise as long as you're absolutely sure your brakes are OK you can depress your brake pedal with your left foot while driving and giving gas with your right foot as to not allow the vehicle to actually slow down. This will wear off whatever is stuck on your pad or rotor much quicker, but again I only recommend doing this if you're absolutely sure that your brakes are OK!
