Why is my Ford Mondeo shaking when braking?

I have a Ford Mondeo and it has been shaking whenever I hit the brakes. It started happening after I got new brake pads installed. What could be causing this issue and how can I fix it?

Hi Samantha, it's possible that when you got new brake pads installed, they were not installed properly. I would recommend taking your car to a mechanic and having them check the brake pads and make sure they are installed correctly.

Another possibility is that your brake rotors are warped. This can happen if you frequently drive on rough roads or constantly brake hard. You may need to get your rotors replaced or resurfaced.
