Does the car shake while driving without applying brakes???

Mechanics use those stupid air ratchets to put the tires back on, and they are near IMPOSSIBLE to get back off without one, as I discovered when I had to change my tire. That CAN warp your rotors, but probably not all of them. Jack up one side of your car, set the parking brake firmly, and put it in neutral and try to spin the front wheels. If they seem like they catch on something, then your rotors probably are warped.

It sounds to me like if your ABS light is on, and you're experiencing a pulsing brake pedal, your ABS module is dead.
