Consumer Description

AT MY CARS 20K SERVICE THE DEALER INDICATED THAT THE BRAKES NEEDED REPLACEMENT. AT THE 50K THEY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. WEAR THIS RAPID IS DISCONCERTING AND DANGEROUS. HAD I NOT TAKEN MY CAR IN FOR REGULAR SERVICE THIS COULD HAVE LEAD TO A SERIOUS ISSUE. I DO NOT USE MY BRAKES HEAVILY. MOST OF MY DRIVING IS NON-HIGHWAY DRIVING, MOSTLY JUST TRAFFIC LIGHT TO TRAFFIC LIGHT. I CONSISTENTLY USE THE PARKING BRAKE WHEN PARKING. *TR
