2000 Chevrolet Camaro Brakes Problems

“Design flaw. E-brake dragging constantly which eventually warps the rotor and if left alone makes a horrible clunking noise that almost sounds like your differential spit a tooth. A little difficult to explain exactly what's happening but find it hard to believe Chevrolet hasn't figured it out. Yes, of course they have! It's just that hundreds of people haven't died.”

“Front brake rotors warped at 19,000 miles replaced under warranty..rotors warped again at 31,000 miles and resurfaced under warranty..warped beyond repair at 46,000 miles..dealer and GM will not replace and does not believe this to be a defect. Did not have same problem with 97 Camaro.”

“Car has required service 2 times for warped rotors after only 25000 miles. Neither repair was covered under warranty. First time, the service people said we must have driven the car through water when the brakes were hot. 2nd time they say we are driving the car aggressively or in a lot of traffic, but admit that this is a common problem with Camaro ss and corvette. This seems to be a design flaw in the car, if the brake rotor regularly become warped.”

“I first experienced the brake system problem at 10000 miles. I was informed by the dealership that they did not do brake system repairs on saturday's and I would have to call back and reschedule for an appointment. When I was finally able to get the car into the shop for repairs, I was informed that the rotors were warped and they would need to be turned down. I agreed to the repair and 8 days later I was able to pick my car up. Within 5000 miles of the repair I was back in the shop with the same complaint. …”

“While applying the brakes the vehicle would jerk. The driver was able to control the vehicle and drove it to the dealer for inspection. The mechanic informed the driver that all four rotors needed to be replaced because they were warped. Please provide any additional information.”
