Reported on Nov 12, 2009
| CAR HAD 19,000 MILES ON IT, I BOUGHT IT NEW. GRINDING NOISE FROM REAR DRIVERS SIDE WHEEL TOOK IT TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE REAR CALIPER WAS NOT RELEASING WHICH RUINED THE BRAKE PADS AND ROTOR. TOLD THE CAR WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. THE ROTOR, CALIPER AND PADS HAD TO BE REPLACED. DEALER COVERED THE COST. NEVER HAD BRAKE PROBLEMS WITH ANY OTHER OF THE OTHER CARS I OWNED. MY MILES ARE HIGHWAY MILES AND I DO NOT HAVE TO USE THE BRAKES AS OFTEN AS I WOULD IN THE CITY. *TR | |
