I had the vehicle inspected on March 3, 2007, it passed inspection. On March 23, 2007 lost the brakes. Upon dealer's inspection of the brakes, they found the pads came completely detached from the shoes. Also, the wheel cylinders were leaking. The brakes and wheel cylinders were fine 3 weeks prior to them blowing apart. Now I am out hundreds of dollars and am very thankful this occurred on a back road and not on a highway. Someone could have been easily killed.
