Hi Samantha. Thanks for sending us a question tonight. Braking hard is very "hard" on vehicle suspension, steering and brake system components, so it’s actually kind of common for a car to jerk a bit when you brake hard. However, sometimes a warped brake rotor or worn out brake pads can cause additional jerking/vibrations to occur when braking hard.
