Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I am having problems with my braking system. i had my brakes fixed in february 2001, it is now 10/2001 and i have had the brakes replaced again. i am a safe driver and do not drive dangerously or wreckless. i do not understand how wear and tear occured so quickly. my front end vibrates vigorously while breaking. stopping several feet past the point where i breaked. the brake pedal went all the way to the floor. i have to stop way ahead of a stop. also, my car shakes and the brake pedal vibrates when i try to stop. as for the transmission, while driving, the car is idled way above the point where it should. the car give a big thump and throw forward when i am trying to break. the transmission is making funny noise, as if i am driving 55 mph with the car in neutral. as for the fumes, they come in my car and is very unsettling. i can not stand the way the fumes smell. the car is also smoking.*ak
