Consumer Description

VEHICLE WAS MAKING LOUD GRINDING SOUNDS WHEN BRAKE WAS ENGAGED, SO I TOOK IT TO DEALER TO HAVE IT CHECKED AND WAS TOLD THAT BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS WERE WORN AND WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. PARTS WERE NOT REPLACED BECAUSE, ACCORDING TO FORD, THIS IS NORMAL WEAR. AT 32,500 MILES, ROTOR DAMAGE IS NOT NORMAL WEAR, ESPECIALLY WHEN GRINDING SOUND BEGINS ONCE FAILURE HAS OCCURRED. *LA
