Default slight vibration

Maybe someone else has this issue...I took my car in for what I would call a slight vibration. What it is, is when i put my foot on the brake at highway speed I get a vibration that is similar in sound to engine braking. I Thought that it may have been a rotor going out or warped so I took it in. That was friday. After hearing the noise themselves they have turned the front rotors, replaced the front rotors, replaced the front pads, replaced all the tires with new ones trying to find the source of the vibration or noise. It is not loud and there is no feedback in the steering wheel so I don't know what it could be. Has anyone else had something similar?

thanks

Maybe it's just simple tire balance.

if you want to talk about vibrations go ahead and ask me because i been through hell and back for 2 years trying to figure out a vibration on my car, i went from changing almost everything in the car and i finally pin pointed it. i never realized that my hub bearing was damaged. it made such a slight hovering noise on the highway that was really hard to tell from the tires rolling. i had it changed and my car is smooth like a baby
