When braking in a turn the brake peddle shudders and I have to push down extra hard. I have new pads and front rotors. Whats going on?

Hi there,

Do you feel this in the steering as well or just the pedal?

Hi there,

This will be a rear rotor problem, as if it was the fronts the vibration will be transmitted through the steering and you will feel it in the wheel.
