So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Consumer replaced front brake pads for 2nd time. Pads were soft, and when they got hot they fade and stay covered with dust all the time. This was second time in a year, 6 months apart. Dealer stated it was a normal wear and tear.
I am also one that had to spend $1933.07 beause of head gasket problem. I have also replaced my brake pad 5 times. I have also bought new front tires 3 times in 3 years. The tire wear is unreal. I also have the problem of the odometer not working. The problem with the brakes and engine running sluggish have been since I purchased the van. The odd thing is you don't get warning signs. The check engine light would come on - go off. In order for the dealer to know what is wrong the check engine light must be on. Never had any sign of the engine overheating. Great driving van but many, many, many, many, many problems.
When applying the brakes a loud grinding noise occurred. The brake pads were replaced. Also, brake shoes were worn badly on the right wheel, also brake shoes were bent.
Owner has ABS brakes; while applying brakes, brake pedal goes to floor. Also, full pressure was applied to brake pedal with no results. Owner further notes that brake rotors and pads were replaced. Owner is very concerned for safety.
