Thank you for taking my question. My first time!
When I slow down to stop, something is sticking coming from the brakes or rear end, I guess. The car sat for 16 years before I bought it. It has new stock calipers and rotors on the back. When you take off and accelerate, its like uh,uh,uh,uh then it drives fine. No vibration when driving. And one more note, it does it often, but not always.

Confused,

If the car sat for that long, you should change all the fluids. I would recommend installing new seals in the brake calipers also if they were not replaced recently.
