It will be one of three problems - Warped discs, fcucked pads or sticking calipers. Take your wheels off and check if the discs for high spots and uneven wear on the pads.

Most likly you wilk feel it in the steering & you will see the steering vibrate (been there) if so then warped discs. As previously said take the discs off & check them on a flat surface
