Example complaints

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

“When vehicle is in motion, there is constant brake noise and squealing at low speeds (under 25mph) which becomes louder when turning left or right; braking distance is longer when the vehicle is cold. Dealership resurfacing and replacing pads and rotors does not alleviate the problem.”
