Default Brake vibration in pedal

I had my front brakes replaced just the brakes were changed the rotors I told where fine. Couple months later when slowing down under 10 mph or slower I get a vibration in the brake pedal and a moaning sound. Happens intermittently. Sounds like its the front left where the moaning is coming from. After my research on the forum and on the net. I believe it may be the rotor. Or could it be the ABS? Your thoughts are welcome. Thanks

Is there a vibration when braking at highway speeds? 70-80 mph?

No Brian pedal only vibrates when I am stopping and the truck is under 10mph. Only happens intermittently. No highway speed vibrations at all

Sure sounds like intermittent ABS activation likely due to a dirty or faulty wheel speed sensor. There is a tech article on what to check to determine the cause.

Thanks for your input swartlkk. Is that tech article about ABS on this website?

Responding from my phone or I would include a link to the article. You can have a look at my signature below for a link to the tech article index post. It should be one of the first few in that post.
