Default Brake question

I recently took a trip in my 2003 4.7 Auto QC 4WD SLT Dakota.

I had to cross a fairly steep mountain and on the way down I noticed that when I touched the brakes it had a shudder like a warped rotor.

The shudder is gone now but the brakes are squealing on occasion. Not every time I brake but every once in a while.

Bad rotor?

Pads are good I checked them today.

I have had this happen to me usually it clears up on its own if not then you may have a problem going on.

Just wait a week or two and see the pads may have a glaze on them
