Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Both front brake discs failed over the period of two years. the disks separated from the hub mount causing the front brake on one side to become innoperable. large steering inputs were required to keep the vehicle from leaving the road. on inspection it was clear that the rotors had sapareted due to rust through. both separations were low speed incidents but in both cases the brakes were innefective and the steering load was substantial.*ak
