Consumer Description

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED, WHILE DECELERATING OR DEPRESSING THE BREAK PEDAL, THE FRONT WHEELS AND STEERING WHEEL VIBRATED AND JERKED FROM LEFT TO RIGHT. THE PROBLEM WAS RECURRING, BUT NOT CONSTANT. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED AND SERVICED ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS. EACH TIME, THE FRONT BREAK ROTORS WERE TURNED, ELIMINATING THE VIBRATION FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. THE MANUFACTURED DETERMINED THE ROTORS OVERHEAT AT TIMES, WARPING THE ROTORS, AND SUGGESTED THE VEHICLE BE TAKEN TO ANOTHER SERVICE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER ALSO CONFIRMED THAT WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED, SO SERVICES WOULD BE PROVIDED AT COST.
