Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2000 CHEVROLET MALIBU WITH CHRONIC BRAKE PROBLEMS. IN THE 5 YEARS I'VE OWNED IT, I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THE BRAKE SHOES AND SURFACE THE ROTORS EVERY YEAR (AND REPLACE ROTORS ONCE) BECAUSE OF A VIBRATION IN THE FRONT BRAKES. CHEVROLET REFUSES TO COVER THIS ABNORMAL BEHAVIOR UNDER WARRANTY AND REQUIRES THAT I PAY FOR THE REPAIR EVERY TIME.
