Are you sure it is the fronts? I blamed mine too, until I rolled down all 4 windows and had my daughter confirm from the back seat that it was the rear brakes.
If it is the fronts, did you break them in properly? If not, lightly sand the pads with a block and sand paper. Then do several stops from 40, without heating up the rotors.
Verify that the slide pins are thoroughly greased. My PBR Metal Masters are just fine.
