Default Violent shaking

97 accord ex sedan
ok when ever im above 50 i say breaking becomes the scariest moment of the day
it vibrates through the steering wheel and brake pedal but its extremely harsh
also when i WOT at a stop my steering wheel turns completely left
i am a do-it-yourselfer i work with cars at my job so have a basic understanding while at work i had my wheels off and checked the front rotors which seemed smooth and flat didnt check the back though i hear a rattle whenever going over bumps and a loud clunk when turning im having a baby soon and am afraid to put a child in this car some body told me the rattle is a broken shock lol i dunno and all help will be appreciated thanks young techies

you need new rotors, the rotor has lost it thickness and therefore produces a shakey moment when braking. I have seen this issue on cars i worked on, and this is the issue with yours. Oh and might as well replace ur brake pads with the new rotors.good luck!

check your suspension too while you're at it & get your car aligned.
