Consumer Description

DT: THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 AVALANCHE SPECIAL EDITION. AT 37,000 MILES HE HEARD THE BRAKES RUBBING. HE NOTICED THE INSIDE OF THE REAR BRAKES WORE OUT, NOT ON THE OUTSIDE. THE CONTACT STATED ABOUT ONE YEAR AGO HE HAD THE REAR BRAKES PADS REPLACED. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WORE A GROOVE INSIDE THE REAR ROTORS. HE CALLED A DEALER, AND THE DEALER TOLD HIM TO BRING THE CAR IN SO THEY COULD LOOK AT IT. THE CONTACT DID NOT WANT TO TAKE THE CAR TO DEALER. HE TOOK THE ROTORS AND THE BRAKE SHOES OFF THE CAR AND TOOK THEM TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER TOLD HIM HE SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR IN AND LET THEM CHECK THE CAR OUT. THE CONTACT STATED HE HAS NEVER USED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. HE DID WANT TO PAY FOR THE NEW ROTORS BECAUSE OF THE DAMAGE DONE TO THE ROTORS BY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. *AK
