Consumer Description

BRAKES/ROTORS/PAD HAVE WORN AND/OR MALFUNCTIONED MORE THAN THREE TIMES IN THE TWO YEARS I HAVE HAD THIS CAR. THE FIRST TIME WAS WITHIN TWO MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP, DEALER REPAIRED, BUT ONLY AFTER PRESSING THE POINT. HAD TO REPLACE THE ABOVE TWICE ALREADY. ONE TIME BRAKES FAILED AS MY WIFE DROVE MY CHILDREN AND NEARLY RESULTED IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. BRAKE PROBLEMS HAPPENING YET AGAIN. WHY IS THIS NOT A RECALLED ISSUE? I AM OUT HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS FOR THIS. *LA
