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.
Since 37,000 miles, rotors were warped, with braking pulsation-machined. #2 warped rotors within 3 mo. New rotors. Warped rotors within 3 mo. Rotors machined-new brake pads. Another three months rotors warped. And grinding noice when brake pedal fully engaged. Believe a design flaw to be present causing the rotors to warp continually. This manifests into pulsation when braking more often than not.
Received recall notice 00V136000. Contacted dealer, and took vehicle in for repairs. Old rotors were replaced with new golden brown rotors. New rotors would chug or drag when brakes were applied. Contacted mechanic, and informed consumer will not replace pads or rotors. New rotors were defective due to being coated.
The rotors failed causing a shimmy in the vehicle, dealer has also refaced the front brakes, consumer states now the brakes are shimmying again and dealer stated problem was with the back brakes. Nlm
Rotors are corroding, but there is nothing wrong with brakes. Vehicle is not part of recall 00V136000/ manufacturer's recall 879, and dealer is not making any agreements for coverage. The consumer was seeking reimbursement of $ 225 for replacement of two rotors.
Rotors went bad only 18,000 miles on vehicle. Consumer has taken vehicle in for rotors twice. Contacted dealer, and dealer was not willing to do anything. Brakes pulsate when applying brakes. Right front and left front brake rotors were replaced. The left speaker cuts out over bumps.
Both front factory brake rotors warped causing brakes to pulsate when braking to a stop. The dealer replaced the rotors twice and it continues to pulsate after about 6,000 miles.
Consumer contacted dealer for routine brake work when dealer noticed front brake rotors were corroded. Same issue was stated in NHTSA recall 00V136000/ manufacturer's recall 879. Manufacturer and dealer stated this vehicle was not included due to VIN.
Disc brake rotors warped at 32,000, taken to dealer and charged to fix despite technical bulletin issured. 1,000 miles later, rotors warped again-not under warranty at this time spent $431 to replace waht was described as inadequate rotors for this make and model car. Total spent on technical problem $489 auto mileage 36,163.
