Severe front shudder during braking. This became apparent about 45000 miles and continued to increase over time. Owner preformed own investigation and discovered front rotors badly warped. Owner preformed own maintainence by installing aftermarket new rotors and pads. Owner wishes to indicate that original rotors removed from car appear to have what looks like fracture cracks across surface of ea rotor and unusual patterns and discolors not seen on other cars before. These parts have been kept at owners home for future investigation if requested. Car is now back in service with brakes operating correctly after repairs were completed.

When applying brakes at highway speed, (55+) the brakes shudder and vibrate the steering wheel. Took car to stuart powell, Ford-Mercury, danville, ky. And was told the rotors were surfaced and the brakes were repaired. About 1 1/2 months later the same problem started again in addition to when the brake pedal is pushed it seems hard and doesn't stop unless a lot of pressure is applied. Also when putting enough pressure on the pedal to stop, the pedal goes almost to the floor. Took the car back to stuart powell Ford-Mercury and they kept it for one full day, test drove it for 1.2 miles and told me they could not find anything wrong. I believe the brakes on this car need to be repaired before I have a serious accident.
