Consumer Description

I EXPERIENCED SHAKING/PULSATIONS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN SLOWING DOWN FOR A STOP (THE FASTER I WAS GOING BEFORE DECLINE IN SPEED, THE LARGER THE SHAKING/PULSATION WOULD BE). I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHO INFORMED ME THAT THE CALIPERS ON THE FRONT WHEELS WERE STICKING AND THAT THE PISTONS WERE GETTING HOT AND WOULD EVENTUALLY CRACK. HE ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THIS IS NOT NORMAL FOR A VEHICLE THAT IS LESS THAN 2 YEARS OLD WITH ONLY 15K MILES ON IT. *TR
