Consumer Description

BRAKES PULSE WHEN STOPPING, ESPECIALLY NOTICEABLE AT LOWER SPEEDS. VAN MILEAGE IS ABOUT 22,000 MILES. FIRST NOTICED THE PROBLEM AT ABOUT 8000-10,000 MILES, AND IT HAS STEADILY GOTTEN WORSE. IT IS QUITE PROMINENT NOW. PRESUMABLY THE ROTORS ARE WARPED. THE (ORIGINAL) BRAKE PADS ARE STILL IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. WE ARE VERY CONSERVATIVE DRIVERS AND RARELY MAKE FAST STOPS. DEALER SAYS BRAKES ARE WARRANTEED FOR ONLY A YEAR. APPARENTLY, SO ARE THE ROTORS. THE INCIDENT DATE IS THE DATE I POSTED THIS NOTICE. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR WELL OVER A YEAR. WE DIDN'T NOTICE IT MUCH AT FIRST, BUT IT IS NOW PRONOUNCED ENOUGH ONE CANNOT MISS IT. *AK
