Consumer Description

BREAKS ON OUR 2000 OLDSMOBILE ALERO HAVE BEEN CHECKED/FIXED 3 TIMES IN 39000 MILES. IN AUG 2002 NEW FRONT ROTORS AND PADS WERE REPLACED AT 31810 MILES. IN JULY 2003 AT 39448 MILES FRONT INSIDE PADS WERE OVER 50 % WORN AND THE ROTORS NEEDED TURNING. BACK BRAKES ALSO NEEDED REPARE. THIS LAST INSTANCE ONLY HAD 7638 MILES ON THE 'NEW' ROTORS AND PADS.THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND ONE THAT THE CUSTOMER MUST SWALLOW HUGE REPAIR BILLS EVERY 8,000-10,000 MILES, WELL OUT OF THE NORMAL RANGE.*AK NHTSA MUST DO SOMETHING TO FORCE GM TO CORRECT THE ISSUE BEFORE A LOSE OF LIFE HAPPENS AND TO ASSIST CUSTOMERS WITH HUGE COST IN BREAK REPAIRS.
