Consumer Description

WHEN I BRAKE IT FEELS LIKE THE VEHICLE ACTUALLY ACCELERATES A LITTLE BEFORE THE BRAKE KICKS IN. ALMOST AS IF I WERE STEPPING ON THE ACCELERATOR AND BRAKE AT THE SAME TIME. DOES NOT HAPPEN OFTEN BUT OFTEN ENOUGH THAT I NOTICE IT. ALSO REAR BRAKE PADS WORN DOWN TO METAL AFTER ABOUT 36,000 MI. ALSO PRE- MATURE TIRE WEAR OUT. HAD TO GET NEW TIRES AT 20K. *TR
