| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have a 2003 cavalier and i am experiencing problems with front brake rotors again. when car was 1 1/2 years old i experienced wheel vibration, took car to dealership where i bought it and they told me that the brake rotors were warped and that they would replace them under warranty. i checked them about 2 weeks later and found that all they did was turn the rotors down they didn't replace them . vibration problem was fixed i thought . got new tires on car and about 6 months later the vibration problem surfaced again. so i took car to a regular brake repair shop and was informed that the rotors were indeed warped. so had the work done for about 350.00 this lasted for awhile till warranty is out now problem is back again. to me it seems like a manufacturing defect/ or it could be the cheap factory wheels. car is a big disappointment. first brake service was 20 thousand plus miles, second time car has 45000 on it, these are mostly highway miles not a lot of stop and go. i have a 94 s-10 with 109000 miles and it,s only had 3 brake jobs in 12 yrs. this car is only three yrs old with low miles and it,s on it,s third time. *jb |
