steering wheel wobble

Just a quick question when coming to a stop at a stop sign I get a wobble or shimmy in the steering wheel could this be a warped rotor.

Most likely. My does it too and it seems to only happen after a few thousand miles of not rotating the tires.

If it's only when you're using the brakes, it's probably a warped rotor like you suspected. You can have the rotors machined, or if it isn't too bad just live with it unless it gets worse.
