Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have owned my vehicle for a little more than two years, it currently has 45,000 miles on it. i have had to replace the brakes on it twice now, and this time when i went to do the brakes there was no wear on the shoes and no grooves in the drums on either side. these are the origonal shoes. i had this problem with the grand prix. i have tested the brakes with the drums off and it looks as though they would assist, but by the amount of wear present i would have to say that all of my breaking is coming from the front. i took pictures of the drums and the shoes and it is clear there is no wear. there wasn't even any dust.*ak
