Wheel shimmy in 99 camry when applying breaks especially slowing down from high speeds


1st check for warped rotor

1st check for warped rotor and the verify bearings are good. check tires for separation. could be any of those. i think i would check the tires 1st.

your brake rotors are warped

your brake rotors are warped and need to be turned to get them back to specs. Remove them and take them to Auto Zone or an auto parts store to have them fixed. Also i would recomend changing you brake pads at this time.

Thanks to both for your

Thanks to both for your answers. I think the rotors make sense also. It just bothers me somewhat why I don't get any shimmy at slow speeds. Thanks again.
