Default Braking from 130+mph

Has anyone had problems with the brakes on the 09 RT? I hear a wobbling noise coming from the front brakes when braking from 130+mph. I got 567miles on the car i will be taking it to the dealer in the next few days to get it checked out.

the dealer is going to tell you to take a hike, brake noise about 120 mph? You know telling them you had it up to that speed or on a race track can void your warranty. Scratch that, i just noticed your location, probably need the rotors machined. Do you feel anything in the pedal/steering wheel when you are braking??

Could even be the ESP kicking in. From 130 the wheels could break loose pretty easily. Depends on how hard you were braking.

yea I don't know how many newer cars you've driven with anti-lock and ESP but that's more than likely what it is/was

Especially with the bland tires that come on an R/T...
