Consumer Description

HAVE TAKEN VEHICLE IN FOR BRAKE REPAIRS ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASSIONS - TWICE WHILE IN WARRANTY AND ONCE AFTER WARRANTY - ROTORS WERE FINALLY REPLACED ON LAST VISIT AFTER COMPLAINING PERSISTANTLY AND SPEAKING WITH THE GM AT DEALERSHIP. THE PROBLEM IS OCCURING AGAIN AND IS WORSE THAN EVER. WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED THE VEHICLE VIBRATES AND BRAKE PEDAL PULSATES AND TRY'S TO VEAR OF COURSE TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT. IT IS MORE PRONOUNCED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. HEAVY PRESSURE MUST BE APPLIED TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP AND THERE IS A NARROW WINDOW OF WHEN IT'S JUST ENOUGH PRESSURE TO STOP NORMALLY AND WHEN THE BRAKES WANT TO GRAB TO QUICKLY..*AK
