Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Rough braking that became worse to the point where vehicle control was questionable. gmc dealer advised that rotors on all 4 wheels needed to be replaced. inspection of rotors indicated that significant amounts of metal had broken away from the brake pad contact area on the rotors. this caused the brake pads to then be applied over a washboard type surface which almost eliminated functionality. all pads and rotors were replaced on this gmc jimmy vehicle which only has 38,000 miles. dealer retained parts and billed $725.
