Brake help!

I have an 06 sedan, just had the dealership resurface the front rotors and resurface the back rotors and change the brake pads in the back. I still feel a bit of a vibration when braking hard from 80+ mph, is this normal? Should I take it back to the dealership? Please help!

i think it takes a little while to get the rotors broken in.. my brakes were a little shakey for the first 50-100 miles

Not normal...

Either they aren't bedded in properly or else the rotors are warped to some extent

+1.

Most likely warped rotors.

Just an update, I took it back to the dealer and the pad was not properly set on the rotor, they fixed it, no charge and its running beautifully now! Thanks for your help
