Consumer Description

TOOK TRUCK TO HAVE BRAKES DONE ON ALL FOUR WHEELS. (COULD NOT STOP BUT WAS ABLE TO STEER AROUND TROUBLE, WAS REASON FOR DOING THIS) REAR BRAKES AND PADS HAD TO BE REPLACED, THEY COULD NOT CUT THE ROTORS DUE TO RUST. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS CONDITION IN FORTY FIVE YEARS OF WORKING ON CARS OR TRUCKS, THE RUST ATE AWAY THE PADS TO 1/3 THEIR SIZE. THIS CONDITION SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED. I CAN SEE CHANGING ROTORS BECAUSE OF HEAT OR METAL ON METAL, NOT FROM RUST. I HAVE THE PARTS THAT HAVE BEEN REPLACED. THE FRONT ROTORS AND PADS DID NOT NEED TO BE REPLACED. THIS HAPPENED IN LESS THAN 5,000 MILES AS I HAD A NEW YORK EMISSIONS AND SAFETY INSPECTION AND IT PASSED BOTH. *JB
