I have two words for you...Sticking Calipers. I have one of the two pots on the left front that sticks occasionally and when it does, it applies uneven pressure on the rotor which makes it bend and oscillate when braking. As soon as you stop, it quits bending and there is no evidience. It causes a huge shake in the front end under braking. Look at your brake pads. If they're wearing on a diagonal, you have a sticking caliper.
