The brake rotors are warped. Someone tightened the lugnuts out of sequence. That compressed and torqued the rotors out of spec. Replace the from rotors and pads and the rear ones too, if necessary.

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.
