Mine was doing the samething.  I ended up tighting the snail adjuster on the rear drum brakes.  When I did that i found out my wheel cylinder (applies pressure to pads so they hit the drum and slow you down) was shot.  But replaced it and tightened the the rear brakes and it went away.

Wouldnt be wheel cylinders of its only on corners. The brake fluid level is the answer.

Yeah. but the wheel cylinders could be the cause of the low brake fluid. maybe everything is gettin to warn and the the rear wheel cylinders are leaking.

let us know if you find out the problem.

if u take the center console  off theres a little switch on the side of the e brake handle.. somtimes they get a little gummy . try cleanning it up and re greesing it up,, with die electric greese... should free it up and work again( ;)
