Your car may shake while braking because the brake rotors are warped or uneven. This makes the brake pads grip unevenly, causing vibration.

Other possible reasons:

Worn brake pads

Unbalanced tires

Suspension issues

It’s best to check the brakes soon for safety.

Nobody could answer that question without looking at your car. One of the possibilities is that your car is overheating. Check the coolant.

Why would a car shake when braking?

A car may shake when braking due to several reasons, the most common being warped brake rotors, which can cause uneven pressure on the brake pads. Additionally, worn suspension components or misaligned wheels can lead to vibrations during braking. Uneven tire wear or imbalanced tires can also contribute to this shaking. It's essential to have the vehicle inspected to identify and address the underlying issue for safety.

Check for warped front rotors. under slight brake application it may not shake. But under hard braking such as getting off an offramp the truck will shake and the brake pedal may pulsate slightly. Chances are real good this is your problem.
