Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Noticed car nose dived a little bit more when braking, plus extra distance required to come to full stop. Rear brakes were recently replaced due to the armature guide pin(s) in the rear brake caliper assembly becoming frozen. One pin in each rear assembly (the same pin in both). Extra braking stress put on front brakes required replacement of rotors due to loss of minimal thicknes (not due to gouging and turning).”
