Pulsating Brakes?

ok i just bought my cra yesterday and now 2day i have a violent pluse when breaking from highway speed and a moderated in the city. the car has less than 20miles on it so i dont believe it could be wear on the rotors. Any ideas?

Take it back. No question.

Sounds like dodgy or ill-fitted disks to me.

…………….

Is this a new or used car? If new, possible grease on rotors, or anti lock system faulty.
Also possible rotors could be warped if wheels were over tightened, and not torqued properly.
Regardless, take it back to dealer. Brakes are nothing to fool with.
I have also seen new caes that have been sitting a while, and rust has formed on rotors causing this pulsating action. A little sanding with fine paper will remove rust and brakes wil be normal. But, that is the dealers worry, not yours, and good luck.

…………

When excessive braking is applied. The rotors for the front wheels heat up. this warps them causing a pulse in the pedal. worst scenario is shimmy left to right or rotor breakage.
Please have them checked out. est. new rotors, brake pads about $100.00. depending make model of vehicle
