Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2002 chevrolet silverado $wd extended cab short bed truck. this vehicle was purchased new by me. currently the vehicle has 39,950 miles on it. since approx 12,000 miles i noticed longer stopping distances. i took it to selling the dealer & was told everything was normal. this weekend i installed new ac delco front brake pads & installed new wagner rotors. upon removing the rotors i couldn't help but notice that there was a issue with the old original never cut rotors. the rotor surface was deteriorated hence causing the problem with loss of stopping distance. note: the brake pads were the original gm. i am a state certified inspection mechanic. after surfing the internet & seeing al of the complaints from other silverado owners i couldn't help but to file a complaint. if this was addressed earlier maybe i would of felt more comfortable driving this vehicle more. as you will see the usual low miles we drove other vehicles instead. *jb
