the ABS does not cause the brakes to stick, they cause them not to stick so I would have to agree with them on that. Did you ever drive another journey to see if that vehicle had a similar feel to the brakes. It might just be the way the vehicles are?
If the ESP and ABS lights are on than there is likely a problem with the ABS system. The only way to find out what is going on is to scan the ABS system for codes and work from there. Any reputable shop will be able to do this.
rear drum brake may have a broken spring. Just brakes,brake check often offer a free check up. (you don't have to go with them for the repair, but its a neat way to find the cause)
I discovered that removing the dip stick also breaks the vacuum and causes the engine to run really rough. I'm not surprised to hear you get stalls. don't worry too much, just check your oil when the engine is off.!
semi-metallic pads can cause noise from glazing over if you are too rough on them, or a crappy pad composition. get some BG brand STOP SQUEAL and apply it to the pads. clears it right up
i would say check brakes first, make sure you dont have a sticking caliper. take off breaks press in caliper, if it wont go in replace the caliper, i would say your brake system would be making the sticking feeling and not the transmission from how you make it sound.
Did you replace them yourself or did you take them to a "qualified brake specialist"? It sounds like your brake lines need to be bled properly. You may also have one or more calipers sticking to cause the vibration.
