2005 jeep cherokee front end pulsating

I have an 05 grand cherokee. when im traveling at low speeds (less than 35) h have a horrible shaking that seems to be coming from my front end. also when braking my brake pedal shakes violently. the "shaking" is more of a pulsating. any ideas? also, when turning left it doesnt seem to do it.

Please have this checked out as soon as possible. Either you, a Mechanic, or an alignment shop, need to check out the front-end and all four points. Something has changed, broke, or is loose and worn out. Check: Ball-joints, wheel bearings, tie-rods, rims, lug-nuts, tires, tire balance, tire inflation, tire tread wear, alignment, U-joints, shocks, and suspension. Let me know if I can be anymore help, good luck.

There is a recall for this type of problem. Please contact the dealer in your area.

Testimonial: "do you know what the recall is? like an id number or just the specifics on what the dealer is supposed to do to correct it? just curious to see if its something i have replaced or done in the past."

    Go to the dealer and have them run you vehicle ID number and all recalls will come back that you need. But first get the front brakes fixed, the brake rotors are warped badly.

Brake pedal shakes/pulsates

warped brake rotors. don't resurface just replace them. if the steering wheel shakes its the front, if the seat of your pants shakes its the rear. in most cases the front will warp first

My 1994 jeep shakes real bad in the front when driving. i can not do the speed limit. at 35 it shakes like the wheels are going fall off. what could be making it shake?

Your problem could be a few things: 1) your tires are out of balance, 2) your front end is worn out, 3) your wheel bearings are worn out. Try having the tires checked at a tire shop for out of balance, if they are good, then unfortunately you will have to take it to an alignment shop and they can tell you all that is worn out.

05 Jeep GC 5.7 Hemi AWD- low grade groaning road noise

Pulsating in the brake pedal is normally an indication of ABS problems or master cylinder problems. A quick check after a short trip may isolate this further. drive the vehicle about 1 or 2 miles, preferably on a highway, then get out and feel for heat from the tires one at a time. Be careful not to touch the hot areas of the wheels. If you feel more heat coming from one tire than the others then the Caliper may be sticking causing the problem. You also need to check your read brakes this way as well as they could also cause this problem if they are sticking.
