| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: As long as i have owned this vehicle, i have had a problem with the whole car shaking when i step on the brakes. i took it back to my dealer in oct 1999 and they turned the rotars but the problem continued. i just recently had to have it in because the battery failed and had them check out the brakes while i was there and they said i need a complete brake job. i ask the service manager to check to see if they had been done before and he found they had. he said he would turn the rotars again but i was responsible for the brake pads. the brakes were really tight when i got the car back last week, but now they seem to be getting back where they were. this car is only two years old and already had to have the battery replaced and the brakes. i feel the dealer should have changed the brake pads at no cost to me. after reading all the complaints about these cars the majority are about the brakes. *ak |
