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.

Why car shake braking downhill?
When a car shakes while braking downhill, it’s usually due to heat and uneven braking parts. Common reasons: Warped brake discs (most common) Downhill braking overheats the rotors, causing slight warping → you feel vibration in the steering or pedal. Brake pad deposits Holding brakes too long can leave uneven material on discs → creates a pulsing/shaking effect. Worn suspension parts Loose components (like control arms or bushings) can amplify the vibration under braking. Wheel or tire issues Imbalanced wheels or uneven tire wear can also cause shaking, especially at speed. What to do: Get brake discs & pads inspected Avoid riding brakes downhill (use engine braking/gears) Check suspension if shaking is strong In most cases, it’s just brake disc warping from heat.
Camry shakes when braking what's wrong?
I have 98 4 cyliner automatic Toyota Camry. When I'm coming to a red light, and when I'm braking, the car begins to shake, and the shake doesn't stop even when the car is stopped. Howeverif i switch the transmission from drive to neutral, the car stops shaking. If I switch back to Drive or reverse, it car starts to shake again. What could be wrong?
Do warped rotors cause car to shake only when giving it gas?
No, warped rotors will cause vibration when braking.
What causes a car to shake while braking and also a grinding type of noise on acceleration?
Shaking while braking: Usually caused by warped brake rotors or worn brake pads. Grinding noise on acceleration: Often due to worn brake pads, bad wheel bearings, or drivetrain issues. It’s best to inspect the brakes and wheels soon, as worn parts can get worse over time.
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.
What causes car and wheels shake while driving and braking?
If it only happens when you are braking I would suspect warped brake rotors. Other reasons the front end could shake would include unbalanced tires or the vehicle needing realignment. Whatever the case may be; driving a car in this condition is unsafe and you should repair it or have it repaired before you drive it again.
Why Volvo S70 shake at driver side while braking?
You need to check your brakes and rotors. Typically when the rotors go out it will make any car/ truck do that.
Why does the car shake when braking at high speeds?
A car shaking while applying brakes is most likely caused by worn a brake pad. Check the brake system at all four wheels to find the problem.
What is wrong with your car if it shakes badly when braking while in drive sometimes dies after complete stop but doesnt shake in neautral while braking?
Nobody could answer that question without looking at your car. One of the possibilities is that your car is overheating. Check the coolant. By the way, if this is the case, and you are driving your car without coolant, stop driving right now because your car is in danger of being irreversabely ruined forever.
