"my 2007 pontiac g6 has a shake in the front when it first starts to go but then stops after it hits about 15mph. The rotars and breaks have been changed and the tires have been rotated and balanced. Any idea what the problem could be

Does it feel like a tire issue or is the engine vibrating?

If the tires are good, the rims are not bent, and the tread on the tires isn't cupped or worn unevenly, my guess is that you have a worn motor mount. They ride in rubber mounts that are there to absorb engine vibration. If the rubber is worn or bad, you get a metal to metal contact and can feel the engine vibrations throughout the car. Have that checked.
