Has the vibration changed at all since the work was done? Have you checked all steering components and alignment, ball joints will cause this, also the tires, try to rotate them front to rear.?

new rotors need to put on the lath and take 1/1000 of to true the rotor or they will pulsate a little while after the repair.this also resurfaces the rotor so the pads can seat properly after the repair and the brakes stop much better when the pads get fully seated to the rotor.ty for using 2carpros
