I get this in my Saturn SL1. It is most noticable for me when decelerating from 70+MPH down to 45MPH. Usually getting off the freeway. I've been told it's due to warped brake pads. It could be caused by a couple of different things. The brake rotors could be warped or worn down. The pads could be worn on one side or just need replacing. If there are rear drums, they may need to be turned or the shoes may need replacing.

Were the rotors resurfaced or replaced, or just the pads? Warped rotors are the most common cause of vibration when braking


Does friction effect braking force?

Most certainly for without friction the braking system would fail no matter how much force was applied.


What would cause a 2001 Bonneville to shake at 40 mph and quit at about 50mph it also shakes when braking. We have had it aligned twice.?

The braking problem is almost certainly a disk brake rotor. The vibration could be a faulty tire, a bent or damaged "half shaft" or an out of balance tire. Front end vibration is not caused by an alignment problem, but can be accentuated by worn suspension or steering components.

Why does a car shake when braking?

This would normally be down to either: Warped Brake Discs (in some counties these are called Rotors) where there is a small ripple in the surface of the disc. This causes the brake pads (which are flat) to make intermittant contact with the surface which causes a vibration. This "warping" is not always visible to the naked eye. Worn or Perrished suspension compnents. This can lead to the wheels moving around in an unctrolled manner during braking which can also cause vibration.

What would cause the abs light and brake light to stay on in a 2000 Chevy Malibu?

the ABS light indicates a problem in in Abs system, a brake light indicates a problem with main braking system. such as low fluid level, leaks in system, parking brake on etc. Abs system works in conjunction to brake system. but abs system is not the main or basic braking system.


What would cause vibration in brake pedal?

Could be that the rotors are "out of round" and pulsate Could be a malfunction in the ABS system
