1996 Chevrolet Corsica Brakes Problems

“Would like to have the entire recall history of this car, it is very important that I have it due to the fact that this is a driver's ed car with many students just starting how to drive. I originally found out that threr were a large number of recalls from midas muffler when I went in to have the car services. I had the brakes done completely, the front wheel bearings replaced (both sides). The back wheel bearnings need to be done very soon. Please let me know if these are part of the recall.”

“(1) for over a year now my anti-lock brakes on 1998 Chevrolet Corsica have failed to stop the vehicle in rainy wet conditions. I cannot drive the vehicle when rainy or wet. The brakes catch and release repeatedly eventually causing the car to slide (this even happens when driving 10 MPH). After the first 15 stops it will eventually begin to stop without doing this. But in the case of the accident I had been driving for 30 minutes and the car failed to stop. (2) I was driving 20 MPH with 3-4 car lengths between myself and car in front of me. The brakes did not stop in time. …”

“After replacing the original front rotors and pads the brakes began to shutter shortly after the brake job. The only solution offered by the mechanic at chevy garage was to turn rotors. This works for short period and starts up again. The mechanic stated the rotors are too small for the vehicle and the heat causes warping. The original brakes did not have the problem until completely worn out. I have put 2 sets of disc and new pads on and the problem continues.”
