Complaint
1994
SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC
THE ROTORS ON ALL FOUR WHEELS HAVE WARPED SIGNIFICANTLY CAUSING LOSS OF BRAKING POWER. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON TWO OCCASIONS SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. ROTORS ARE TURNED WHEN DETERMINED BY A SERVICE CENTER. PADS ARE IN GOOD CONDITION. THE FRONT ROTORS USALLY WARP BEYOND USAGE FIRST, THEN REAR FOLLOWS SHORTLY AFTER THE FRONT ROTOR REPLACEMENT. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME AND MY FAMILY, AS WE ALL USE THE CAR. I FEAR THAT THIS ISSUE COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT IF THE ROTORS WARP PREMATURELY AGAIN IN A CRITICAL SITUATION. THE AVERAGE MILES ON THE ROTORS BEFORE REPLACEMENT IS 10K MILES. THE ROTORS WERE TURNED APPROXIMATELY 2000 MILES AGO, AND AGAIN THE ROTORS ARE WARPING CAUSING POOR BRAKING.
