Your rotors must be warped check them out. Theyll probably need to be replaced.

if the rotors are warped it means they have slight bends in them usually cuased by overheating or misuse of the brakes. This means that the brake pads won't have a totally smooth, flat surface to press against. It sounds to me like warped rotors too

What they told you is most likely Not what it is though.

Your symptoms sound more like uneven pad compound deposit.

But there are several other things that it could be. But a true warped rotors are few and far between.

How old are your pads and rotors?

Whens the last time you had either of them replaced?
