Consumer Description
NOTICED PULSATION AND SQUEAKING BRAKES. BROUGHT VEHICLE IN AND DEALER SAID THAT ROTORS NEEDED TO BE TURNED. NOT UNDER WARANTEE SINCE 20,000 MILES, BUT ALSO REPLACED ALL PADS DUE TO SERVICE BULLETIN ON PADS. ROTORS APPEAR DEFECTIVE DESIGN AND BAND AID REPAIR OF SOFTER PADS TO MASK PROBLEM. COULD END UP BEING MAJOR PROBLEM IF NOT CORRECTED PROPERLY. HOW CAN WE ALL GET CHEVY TO OWN UP AND REPLACE A FAULTY BRAKE SYSTEM DESIGN? BY THE LISTING IN YOUR COMPLAINT DATABASE, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THIS IS A VERY WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM. *AK
