Does the steering pull ass well will breaking. Trailblazers known for front lower control arm bushings going bad and will cause rattle while breaking but also a unusual pull
I don’t believe I get a pull like when applying brakes from a distance there’s no rattle it’s only when I slowly pull up to a stop when the rattle noise appears and then when I completely stop the noise stops as well

low pads on a dual piston caliper may do it , do an inspection something must be loose
I was wondering all if it could be the transmission fluid I checked it and it looks brown
I would check your metal dust shield, could be a small pebble stuck in there. Happens to my own Trailblazer quiet often for some odd reason whenever I'm offroad.

I don't think tranny has anything to do with it but is the fluid is brown and burnt I would change it , any fluid will start to carry contaminates and should be changed
I was wondering it it could be the catylac converter like I checked underneath and there’s a heat shield that is looks but it feels like oracle he converter that is vibrating
