Shakes or Wobbles problem

When I apply make brakes the steering wheel shakes with a vibration you can feel throughout the suv, and the vehicle pulls to the right.

It sounds like 2 problems. First, the vibration in the steering is caused by warped brake rotors. It happens to all cars over the years because of the heat that is created when braking. The pull to the right sounds like you may have a calliper sticking. A sticking caliper would cause the rotor to heat up and warp. If it is pulling to the right, that is the first side I would check. Let me know what you find or if you need further assistance.
