Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“As of this date, I have had to replace the front brake rotors and pads. The first incident was at 8,000 miles, replaced the front rotors, calipers, and brake pads. The second incident, I had the vehicle back in 4 months for the same problem. This date, 05-18-00, I again had to have the rotors and pads replaced at my expense. The vehicle is only 2 years old and has only just turned 20,000 miles. I feel there is some kind of defect in the parts or in the manufactoring of the parts.”
