Consumer Description

THIS VEHICLE HAS A RECCURRING PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT BRAKES. THE DEALER REPLACED THE FRONT BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS 6 TIMES UNDER WARRANTY AND I HAVE REPLACED THEM 6 MORE TIMES SINCE THE WARRANTY ENDED. THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES. THEY SIMPLY SAY "IT NEEDS A BRAKE JOB" FOR $300.00 WHEN THAT IS OBVIOUSLY NOT THE PROBLEM. THE BRAKES VIBRATE EXCESSIVELY WHEN SLOWING DOWN FROM ALMOST ANY SPEED AND EMERGENCY BRAKING IS COMPROMISED RESULTING IN EXTREMLY LONG DISTANCES TO COME TO A STOP.*AK
