Your front brake rotors are warped. You can have the machined as long as they are still thick enough. This step is normally a part of most shops brake jobs. If the rotors are already to thin, you will need to replace the brake rotors.

One other thing you might want to check. Mine did that too, and it turned out that the lug nuts were improperly torqued. Some were only hand tight and others were too tight.
