| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Upon ma state inspection the 2 front idler arms were found to be completely gone "typical of blazers and astros" they said. independant garage found that the arms were extremely worn for this milage. also the front disk rotors are worn past the point of safty, and a deteration of the cooling and support fins is noted, this seems odd as the rotor pads show typical and even wear for the milage. the rotors are evenly worn, but excessivly deep cut. at 15000 miles the pedal went completely to the floor at a stop sign, ok on second pump, never occured again. i have heard of this and i am always cautious. breaks sometimes act oddly but work ok. i still feel great about chev vans though my arm rest fell off ? |
