Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: (event leading) on or about 09-29-2003 i took my grand am into hanigan chevrolet in ontario,oregon to have a brake problem fixed, the unit had 15212 miles on it, as to the unit was vibrating violently when braking. (diagnosis was) they advised me the rotors on the unit front were warped, stated the rotors were to light to handle the heat and pressure, also stated warranty would not cover them.(even though they were not worn out but were damaged due to poor construction. i paid to have it repaired. here on the 6-28-2004 i noticed the same problem again when returning from a vacation trip, mileage now is 28158. it is going in again for analysis to the same dealer. same failure happens approx. every 13000 to 15000 miles....recall is needed. *jb
