Why does my Wagon R vibrate when I apply the brakes at high speed?

When braking at higher speeds, like on the highway, my 2019 Suzuki Wagon R vibrates through the steering wheel. Could this be due to worn-out brake pads, uneven rotors, o r improper installation?

Braking vibration, especially at higher speeds, usually comes from the front end and is linked to:

Warped brake rotors: Heat distortion causes the disc to become uneven, leading to vibration.

Uneven brake pad wear: Pads that aren’t seated evenly can lead to inconsistent friction.

Loose suspension o r steering components: Can amplify the vibration during braking.

Fix:

Get the rotors machined resurfaced o r replaced if they are out of tolerance.

Replace worn o r uneven brake pads.

Check for loose tie rods, wheel bearings, o r control arms that may contribute to vibrations.
