Consumer Description

1] NO PROBLEM JUST APPLIED BRAKES 2] WHEN I APPLY BRAKES IT VIBRATES THE FRONT END. 3] I TOOK TO RANDALL KNOLL DEALERSHIP IN TERRELL AND THEY KEPT THE VEHICLE ALL DAY AND SAID THEY DIDN'T FIND A PROBLEM AND ASK IF I WANTED TO PUT NEW BRAKES ON SO I SAID IF IT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM SO THEY APPLIED THE NEW BRAKES AND NOTHING CHANGED THE VIBRATION. OR SHAKING WHEN YOU APPLIED THE BREAKS. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A YEAR. TOOK THE TRUCK TO A LOCAL SHOP AND HAD THE ROTORS TURNED AND THEN REPLACED AND STILL THE PROBLEM EXISTS. PLEASE ADVISE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS WHEN YOU HAVE TO APPLY THE BREAKS QUICK YOU BECOME AFRAID THAT THE VEHICLE WILL NOT STOP. *JB
