Why is my truck pulsating when I brake? I have had the brakes checked and they say they are ok, possible dirt on the rotters. But this happens almost every 3000 miles or so
Please help, and now I hear a slight clicking in the front wheels?
Thank You

A pulsation when using the brakes is caused by an out of round brake drum or a warped brake rotor.

Thank You for all your info, and I will know be able to feel more comfortable when I take it to be looked and fixed.
Thanks again

Hi Bob, Ken and all of the 2carpros team
I recently brought my truck back to Goodyear, who put on the rotors originally. They were very good about redoing them. Since they were still under the 12,000 mile warranty. So Far, so good. I will let you know if there are any other problems.
Thank You for your help
