Consumer Description

AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 7/10 MILES AND THEN PARKING IT SMELLS LIKE BURNING BRAKES. WHEN WE TOOK IT IN TO HAVE THE BRAKES CHECKED THE REPAIR SHOP SAID THE PADS WERE LOOSE AND GLAZED. WE HAVE REPLACED THE BRAKES PADS 2 TWICE SINCE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND THE TIME FRAME FROM THE 1ST TIME TO THE LAST TIME WAS ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO AND WE ARE TAKING IT BACK TO HAVE THE BRAKES CHECK AGAIN FOR THE SAME REASON. *AK
