first, is it all four wheels or a couple of wheels or one? It seems from the symptoms that the brakes are getting hot, swelling a little and forcing the car to stop. I have had this happen on motorcycles before after brake pad changes and it was stuck calipers. Basically, the piston was used to being fully extended because of worn pads, then when I replaced the pads, hitting the brakes extends the piston and it doesn't want to return all the way. Everything is fine until the brakes heat up and seize.
I had to rebuild the caliper.
I doubt all four wheels seize, but one or a pair is conceivable.
