warped brakes would cause a lot of shaking whilst braking, and maybe u only notice at speed bumps becuase your braking for them?

if its pullin to right when braking, left caliper is sticking, and visa versa. if one is sitcking, they may be able to free it by taking caliper off and moving the piston back and forth im not sure, if not, new caliper pal.

same as the other guy,...
jack up the front, and shake the wheel from side to side and up and down, if there's freeplay the its a worn balljoint or track-rod end, check the easy things before diagnosing it as a brake fault
