: the contact stated that the brakes squeeked right after the vehicle was purchased. The dealer replaced the rotors in April of 2006 however there was no brake failure. The brake light did illuminated. Although the vehicle was driven on normal road conditions, the dealer determined that the brakes had been worn by 70% within one year. The vehicle also had realignment work performed. There was also a problem with the electrical system. The vehicle has been through 2 batteries including the one that the vehicle was purchased with. The dome light infrequenlty works even though the bulb and fuse have been changed. There was also some type of a fuel problem that combined with the electrical problem caused the vehicle to be towed 6 times within 5000 miles.
