Returned vehicle to dealer many times complaining about brakes, he replaced one pad on one tire. Says it was the only one worn, now car skids on braking and pulls to the side. Egr valve is also bad and he refuses to acknowledge anything is wrong with vehicle. He states he replaced oxygen sensor unit but, it still appears old and rusted in.after the first day of having vehicle I complained about brakes.idler bearing imobilized car 2 days after purchase, he geryy rigged it without fixing it properly.
