Default mild brake shudder

2007 Lariat 28k mi bought 2 weeks ago - I seem to notice a very mild brake shudder on moderate stops. Truck is covered by a Ford certified and extended warranty. Is this worth bugging the dealer about? Rotor issues maybe? ABS? so many questions!

Mild shudder will be front rotors most likely. Dont think thats covered under warranty but since you just got it I would hope that they replace them no charge

You have to get them machined so they are running straight and true or get new ones. If you get them machined they have to be within a certain thickness. Personnaly I would get new ones.
