Brake problem please help

Hello everyone,

I need some help from you guys...I recently had rear brake pads and rotors replaced on my 08 cobalt ss t/c...I noticed when the ebrake is applied the light does not show but when I start my car it flashes and it goes off. Even after it flashes and the ebrake is applied the light is not on. I also noticed while driving slow and coming to a complete stop the rear of my car has this crazy loud vibration sound when stopping...I am taking my car back when they are open but it's driving me nuts. Please someone help.
Thanks

Did you have a dealer do it? Someone screwed up here for sure.

This tells me that there is definitely something really wrong. It sounds like they totally F'd up the installation.

I went to a regular mechanic not the dealership...My uncle who is a mechanic said they probably did not hook up the ebrake sensor after installing the new rotors and brakes but he said to take it back. After spending 325 dollars imagine dealing with this bullshit. Any other comments or suggestions.
