Consumer Description

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED AT 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE WOBBLED AND THE BRAKES PULSATED WHILE PRESSURE WAS APPLIED TO THE PEDAL. ALSO, THE ABS LIGHT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE DEALER REPLACED THE FRONT ROTORS, CALIPERS AND PADS, WHICH CORRECTED THE PROBLEM FOR A SHORT TIME. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER FOR THIS PROBLEM SEVERAL TIMES TO HAVE THE ROTORS TURNED OR REPLACED. THE AVERAGE TIME BETWEEN FAILURES IS ABOUT 6000 MILES. IN 2004 THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER DEALER WHO REPLACED THE ROTORS. AGAIN, THE PROBLEM HAS REOCCURRED AND THE DEALER DETERMINED THAT BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR ROTORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.
