NO, If your brakes were serviced correctly then they will not be out of line. Have your brake system inspected by a professional. If something is wrong, doing what you describe may cause you to loose control of the vehicle if the brakes lock up.

What does the abs light on in a 2009 Kia Sportage mean?
ABS usually means the anti-skid for braking , so if the light is on you have a ABS brake problem. The front brake rotors send speed signals back to the computer so the computer can calculate not really the speed, but in a way it does, for revolutions of the rotors and a quick change in ABS signal to the computer along with a brake signal makes the brakes pulse instead of locking up help preventing skidding.

Since you didn't specify WHEN it shakes (high speed, when using the brakes, low speed???) here are a couple possibilities:wheel balance,worn suspension,worn steering linkage,bent wheel,defective tire.And if it only occurs when you use the brakes, it could even be a faulty rotor even if it IS supposed to be new.

A couple possibilities to check out are the lower control arm/ball joint assemblies or the brake rotors.

The solution - new brake rotors and preferably ceramic brake pads which will help solve the noise, vibration, and harshness. Alos, make sure all nuts and bolts are torqued to proper specs.
