Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Brakes make a high-pitched squeaking sound when i brake. the car requires alot of braking time & distance to stop - it doesn't stop quickly. the car has died on 4 occasions. three times were at red lights, the fourth i was going about 35 miles an hour. i notifed the nearest dealer (in norco california). the manager of the repair shop had me bring the car in (an hour drive) & then said he was too busy to look at my car when i arrived. i asked if i could leave it & take a replacement or rental car until he had time to inspect the car. he said no, i should just bring it back another day.*ak |
