Car Shakes/Vibrate when i press the Brakes

Postby Imprezme » Tue Mar 09, 2010 11:28 pm



So i have a G35xS and recently ive noticed that when i brake from high speeds the car starts to rumble and shake. i can feel it in my seat and on my brake pedal. The car is fairly new with 16k miles on it. Anyone know what can cause this?

Welcome to NICO

I would have Infiniti check out the car. Not sure when the brakes are no longer covered...but i think it' only a few thousand miles.

Do you feel the brake pedal pulsate when stopped? Could be a rotor needs to be turned.

It sounds fairly routine. It should still be covered by warranty, and you may get some new rotors, but I haven't seen any issues in the newer G, with the exception of customer abuse during break-in and before they hit 10,000 miles. Or, after making 105,394,385 rotors, yours may have a slight defect.

Time for rotors to be resurfaced, at worst replaced. New pads maybe as well.
