Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The intial problem is that there is a popping noise that is coming from the brakes. the dealer says that this is normal, and is due to brake shifting. a day later the brakes started to squeal. the rotors and pads were reserfaced twice, and the problem now comes and goes. i feel there is a major issue with the brake system in the lexus is 300, and the noise is not normal. out of the 5 cars i have owned i never heard this in any of them. *ak
