On intermittent occasions and at various braking speeds, the brake pedal loses pressure and vibrates loudly. The brakes fail in each instance and do not stop the car. Also, the ABS light comes on and stays on. My mechanic (non-dealer) tested the ABS system for fault codes and found fault code 32. He cleaned the left rear wheel speed sensor and the car was fine for 3-1/2 months, but the same problem has begun again.
