When i am going 40mph on a city street and theres someone riding my butt, my brakes will give me wiplash, so i generally engine brake on most of my stopping. Also, who doesnt do that? You're telling me no one else downshifts to help them slow down?

Anyways, fluids were all done around 8k ago. But I will look into trans fluid & torque converter
Um, maybe slow down earlier, thus forcingbthenguy behind you to brake as well?

The brakes on the base is certainly not terrible. Did you buy the car used? Consider new brake pads. Stopping power has never been a problem for me.
