Consumer Description

I BOUGHT THE AUTO NEW AND WHILE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY THE BRAKES HAD TO BE REPAIRED. THE ROTORS WERE REPLACED OR FIXED. AT 54248 MILES I REPLACED BOTHE THE FRONT AND REAR ROTORS AND THE FRONT PADS. NOW AT 71000 MILES I HAVE TO REPLACE THE FRONT AND REAR ROTORS AGAIN IN A SPAN OF 17000 MILES. THE GARGAGE AND THE COMPANY HOTLINE CLAIM THE PROBLEM IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH BOTH THE GRAND PRIX AND THE CHEVY LUMINIA. IT IS NOT CONSIDERED A FACTORY DEFECT YET THESE ITEMS ARE REPLACED ON THESE VEHICLES MUCH MORE OFTEN THAN THE OTHER VEHICLES OF THE SAME SIZE AND STYLE. 16-17000 MILES APPEARS TO BE PROBLEMATIC FOR A COMPLETE BRAKE REPLACEMENT. *AK
