braking shudders

Post by karlisj »

When I brake, besides the usual squeal, I feel a thudding through the brake pedal. I matches with the revolutions of the wheels. What is this?

After a Midas brake job, we had squeal and shudder. We took it to another Midas to get it checked out. They installed ceramic pads and shims. No more squeak OR shudder. We did our research online and saw this same problem repeatedly and the ceramic pads were the answer everytime. Worth the $$! BTW, Midas just charged us the difference for the new ceramic pads which we felt was fair.
