Default Another Brake Question

On my 2001 Eclipse GT, that I have had looked at by multiple mechanics is having brake issues and nobody can fix the problem. When I am trying to come to a fast stop and push the pedal harder than usual (not slamming) it seems like I am pushing further down than what it should be and there is a vibrating feeling like something is knocking. And besides that they squeal really loud. I have had the rotors turned and the brakes checked and everyone says there is nothing wrong but I can't stand it. I am just wondering if anyone would have any ideas what is going on or if this has happened to anyone else. Thanks.

Try bleeding the brake system to get rid of any air pocket you might have and inspect the master cylinder for any kind of leaks.
