Stan!
My 19 yrs old son came back from UNT and tell me the his car having the viration and what I fine:
The viration came from the front (more likely on the driver side) happen when it run more then 30-35 miles up the passter the more viration will be, only happen when I step on the brake.
Check
1-the front-end all looking good
2-Brake pad are 75% life left
3-Caliper good
4-rotor good
5-Bearing good
6- Shacking the wheel for bad join or wearing out bearing and any other, look good
But I'm not very sure what I check are correct and I can't seem to find any wear out part.
What and where should I looking for next, Please Help.

Thank you

There is no vibration unless you hit the brakes?
If so, warped rotors.

Please replace the pads if you turn those rotors.
Do not use the old pads.
