I have a 1999 infinity I30 with 105,000 miles on it and sometimes when you apply the brakes it is like you're driving on a washboard road. It may do it several times in a row and then not do it again for a day or so. I think it has something to do with the anti-lock brakes. I'm sure when I take it to the mechanic it won't do it. My questions is should I wait till it gets more consitent are take on now.
thanks

You have warped front and or rear rotors. On your car the pads and rotors needs to be replaced together.
