Brakes Pulsating
Why are my brakes having this terrible fore and aft pulsation? At first I was told the rotors warped, I replaced them and pads at 35K. Now, 14K later, it's back. Is there something mechanically wrong? It's getting so noticeable that I find myself trying not to stop slowly, but rather delaying my braking. Not a good thing!

I apparently had the same problem, though i didnt know it the dealer i use took my car on a test drive and told me about it. They fixed it for me along with the alignment i originally went in for.
I think i had around 20k miles on my car at the time.

Brakes are pulsating? A few things to look at
1- Brake pad taper*. ie time for new brake pads
2- the caliper brackets are bent
3 - the caliper is bent itself
4 - combination of the above
5 - cracked rotor.
( if you have brake pad taper chances are you also have bent brackets and or a bent calipers.
