Consumer Description

VEHICLE FRONT BRAKES OVERHEAT. WHEN DRIVING DOWNHILL AT ANY RATE BRAKES WILL SOFTEN CONTINUOUSLY UNTIL HAVING TO PULL OVER FOR FEAR OF SAFETY. WHEN BRAKES WERE CHECKED BY DEALER THEY STATED THAT THEY WERE AT 75% AND SHOULD BE WORKING FINE. EVERY TIME I BRAKE GOING DOWN HILL I FEEL SOFTNESS IN BRAKES. BRAKES ALSO WILL START TO SMELL AFTER BRAKING DOWNHILL.
