Honda Civic Si brakes not working?

I own a Honda Civic SI 2010. Lately, I've had to break hard because of traffic going to work. The problem is that when I braked hard it felt as if the break pedal would shake and it felt as if it was shaking when i braked. Anyone know what could be the problem?

Depends how hard and fast you brake, could be your anit lock brakes engaging. If you feel that it is a problem you should be able to take it back to the dealer under warranty. If nothing else is out of the ordinary i would say it was your anit lock brakes, they sorta feel like they chatter when they engage, its to stop you from locking up the wheels...

ABS - the pump pulses and you feel it in the pedal as well.
