Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Car makes a noise from brakes when turining all the way to the left and applying pressure to the brakes. it's not a normal brake squeal, it's more of a moaning noise. it is definately coming from the driver's side front brake. it does not happen when it turns to the right. it also normally occurrs when the vehicle/brakes are hot. it has been occurring for the past 10 months. two seperate mazda dealerships say there is no problem and they "can't reproduce the sound." at pinnacle mazda (renton, wa), the service manager said there was no problem. i had a mechanic ride with me to try and make the sound. during the ride, he stated that mazda has been having a "ton of complaints about brakes, especially the rx-8, but also on the mazda 6 and mazda 3." he further stated, "it doesn't seem like mazda can find a fix either." i thought this was interesting coming from a mazda mechanic. ultimately, my car still makes the noise. i have a co-worker who has the same car, and it too makes the same noise.
