Braking = Steering wheel wiggles

[Xenostalgia]

braking sometimes makes the wheel move a bit like i'm on a dirt road or something, whats that mean?

whne i hit my brakes the car jerks a little to the left, i think its just something like one pad touches first so it dose a little pull to left thing, is that what yours does? or does it actually wiggle back and forth?

On a dirt road? I dont know but my Monte moves from side to side if I brake really hard.

[Xenostalgia]

Err... no.. "Like it was on a dirt road."
the car doesn't shimmy or move or anything.

the steering wheel feels loose. but if I try to move it like back and forth its firm.

wiggles and stuff when i brake.

I know what you're talking about now, my mom's Lincoln did it too, I cant really help you out on what makes it do that though, i'd say its normal but who knows?

warped rotors.

Yep, warped rotors will make your wheel bobble a bit and most the time you'll feel it in the brake pedal too. Usually if the steering wheel moves, means that somebady cranked the lugs on too tight.

A pull to the side during braking is usually a hung caliper.

Pulling back and for under hard, I'd have to say is ABS at play?

They are brand new rotors I put 'em on a few months ago, how can they be warped?

[Rally Sport]

I thought my Monte was gunna spin out whenever I was braking that hard because it was going left to right so badly. I broke becausesome stupid person decided to turn left when im very close to em.

they can warp from sitting or being made of cheap material...

[89IROC&RS]

or from riding em like an old lady

I think mine did, but question, when the rotors get warped will your braking feel weaker in addition to the vibration??

[89IROC&RS]

possibly, i dont know that its a rule though.

[Xenostalgia]

eh braking feels a tad bit weaker but they were like 70$ ones form autozone :/
