Consumer Description

HAVE HAD MY FRONT BRAKES REPLACED THREE TIMES. FIRST TIME AT 11,000 MILES, SECOND TIME (ROTORS REPLACED) AT 24,000 MILES AND THIRD TIME AT 36,000 MILES. BRAKES CONSISTENTLY SQUEAL, SO LOUDLY THAT I CAN HEAR THEM OVER MY RADIO! I'VE BEEN TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT FOCUS BRAKES TEND TO BE LOUD, BUT IT DOESN'T MEAN THEY DON'T WORK. DEALER ALSO SAID THEY RECEIVED NOTICE FROM FORD THAT FOCUS BRAKES JUST "SQUEAL". I DON'T BELIEVE THIS IS TRUE AND THAT THIS SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED "NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR".*AK
