I had the same problem and I did some hard braking from 70 to 10 mph 4 or 5 times. The shaking went away. I'd give it a try if you haven't already.

do any of you guys read.. out of about 15 post i saw maybe 10 saying rotors.. when like the 5th post down he clearly says that it doesnt happen when braking therefor excluding the fact that his rotors could be warped... check your tie rods.. and or bent rim seems to be the culprit..

AhmadHasib, take 20 minutes and rotate your tires. This will eliminate all guessing of bent wheel, separated tire, flat spot in tire, or any other wheel/tire related symptom. After swapping them from front to rear, go for a road test and see if the vibration goes away. If it doesn't, then we're looking at something loose or worn in your front end (which your alignment should've picked up). But rotate your tires first. FYI, a separated front tire feels like the steering wheel is jerked left and right, usually around 15 mph to 35mph. An out-of-balance front tire feels like a shimmy in your steering wheel at speeds above 50mph, but usually goes away as you drive faster. Yes, front brake rotors are known to cause jerking/ vibration in your steering wheel if it is warped or the surface has isolated corrosion spots ie: if your car hasn't been driven for a while and the imprint of the brake pad is corroded onto the rotor
