Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I purchased the used after it had 38000 miles. after purchase i found i had numerous brake complaints. after several attempts at repair the dealer replaced the front right caliper. replaced the rotors with two new ones and instaled new pads. researching the brake problems i discovered the car had brke pad replacent 2 previous staring at 9400 miles and had the rotors machined at least twice before. additionally i was told the left caliper had been replaced also although i have no record. the brakes continue to "chatter" upon braking. i don't believe having brake work done 4 times within 51000 times is normal. therefore i'm reporting as a defect despite the dealers protestations that everything i normal. dt
