It sounds like you either have a problem with your alignment or your front wheels are unbalanced. I also had a similar problem where everything shook because my tires were worn out and out of balance.
Brake rotors or drums need to be machined or replaced. If it causes steering wheel shaking, check front brakes. If happens when applying parking brake look to rear brake problem.
Jiggle the steering wheel as you turn the key. I've owned several cars in which the steering wheel lock wouldn't let the key turn if there was any pressure on the steering wheel lock.
there is a chance that your rotors are warped and need replacing"Possible"
