Consumer Description

BRAKE PADS ARE WEARING OUT PREMATURELY. WHEN BRAKE PEDAL IS APPLIED THE BRAKES MAKE A LOUD VIBRATING NOISE WITH POOR STOOPING EFFECT. MOST OF MY DRIVING IS HIGHWAY YET THE BRAKE WEAR OUT AS IF I APPLY THEM CONSTANTLY. DEALER HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THAT BRAKE WEAR HAS BEEN ERRACTIC WITH CAR, YET ALL THEY RECOMMEND IS REPLACING BRAKE PADS AND RESURFACING THE ROTORS EVERY 10000 TO 15000 MILES. I'VE REPLACED THE BRAKE PADS TWICE SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR AND NEED TO REPLACE THEM AGAIN SOON SINCE THEY ARE WORN AGAIN. IN GENERAL, THE BRAKES ON THIS VEHCLE FUNCTION POOR AT BEST WITH PREMATURE WEAR OUT OF BRAKE PADS AND DRUMS.*AK
