step on brakes, car vibrates
i had a problem where when i step on my brakes, my car vibrates...i got new rotors and my car still does that...any suggestions?

Your rotors are warped. Resurface them and change the brake pad if you have a 99-01 TL with orig brake pads. Might be covered underwarranty but that depends on what year your car is and how many miles.

same on mine only when I am at high speeds over 60mph I figured it was the rotors, please give the info on your problem and how you are trying to fix it. I have an amasing mechanic, I haven't gone to him yet but it would be great to tell him what you've tried so we don't waste too much time figuring this out. my car is a 99 TL. I was going to tell my mechanic that it seemed like my rotors but now reading your post I think I will try to analyze the problem more, keep me/us informed on the situation, I will post anything I think might help.

You got the fronts or backs done....or both? When you get feedback from the car/seat, it's usually the rears. If it comes through the steering wheel, chances are it's the fronts. Aftermarket rotors ?

My 99 is starting to do this as well now, mainly when breaking at 60+ mph.. the shop where the car is right now for some major repairs to the engine mounts actually called me and told me that my front left rotor is warped... grr

some slotted/groved rotors still shake due to the grooves in them. most high rotors that are slotted or cross drilled are purely cosmetic and arent built with high quality and will warp easy. even the good ones will warp.
