Default Trailblazer brakes

Hi, i have a 2004 Trailblazer, and i started having problems with my brakes..
When ever i use the brakes, even if slowing down 10mph a time, the brakes shudder under my feet, and the entire vehicle, shakes slightly... This didnt use to happen before, but now it has increased, if anyone has an idea on what this problem might be, i would be really greatful... Thank You...

Have you checked it for warped rotors?

Umm, no, i havent done that, but thanks a lot for the help, after you posted the possible problem, i checked some more sites online, and the symptoms seem to match the problem of warped rotors. Should i turn the brakes, or would the problem still repeat after a while... Or, would you recommend just replacing them althogether? Thanks a lot for the help.

That depends on how bad your rotors are warped (If they even are). If they are warped pretty bedly, then replace them. If they don't seem that bad, go ahead and turn them.
