steering wheel shakes.
#3
Well...mine never shook when I hit the brakes. But it did jitter when it reached 60MPH. I took it in, had it checked out, and I had a slightly dented front passenger side rim. Got that fixed, and the problem went away. Same thing happened to my cousin's 02 GLE. Same solution worked for him.
You live in Jersey, and I know Jersey streets are everybit as ****ty as NYC streets. Hit any bad potholes or bumps lately? I suggest having your rims looked at.

100% warped rotors. Do not get your rotors resurfaced..OEM brakes suck. change the rotors and slap on new pads. Mine did the same thing. I got the rotors turned...after 6k miles..same thing. save your money and get new NON OEM brake equipment. I would go with brembo rotors.

Yep, same here. Started at ~15k. Dealer resurfaced the rotors and 5k later, I got the same problem. I'm taking it in again and asking for new ones. I guess it will be Powerslot ones if I cannot get them replaced for free.

It really comes down to how serious and professional your dealer is when dealing with customers' issues. Warped rotors in ~10k-15k is not normal. I did not have to resurface the rotors in my '93 Escort GT until ~50k-60k miles...
