Check your rotors and pads

rotors are slightly warped.....get them lathed or get new rotors depending on how severe it is and how much of the rotor is left....

If this is occuring at low speeds, prob best to just replace the rotors and pads rather then resurfacing.

u should balance ur wheels cause after driving on them and as the rubber wears down it makes it a little unblanced. That will make u have smother ride and rotors are so cheap i would just get new ones
