2000 Camry Braking Problem
Hello, I have a 2000 Toyota Camry. The car was shaking when I was braking at the high way speeds. Today, I changed front rotors and pads. This solved that shaking problem. However, there is another problem is still persisting. When it comes to brake to stop at a red light, let say i am at a speed of 30-35 mph, I am applying a constant pressure to the brake pedal and I am expecting the car stop smoothly. However, It is stopping but as it stops it lurches forward. This can be felt intensively when I am stopping at steeped down traffic light.
Can you tell me your opinion about this? It is very annoying having this after having changed all the rotors and pads new.
Thank you.

Breaking Problem, lurches Forward while braking
This may not apply to you.
but just in case --
Believe or not, a couple of times my size thirteen shoe wasn't centered on the brake pedal.
When this happened, the outer edge of my shoe caught the accelerator pedal causing the engine to over-ride the braking. It got scareyier when I continued pushing down on the brake pedal which in turn is give the engine more gas.
I had a similar problem with a 2000 Corolla.
Thank goodness both times I was able to realize what the problem was before I hurt someone.
I have never had the problem with my 1989 Toyota pickup.
Because, the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal are just a little further apart.
