| Description of the problem | In may i started to notice some shimmying when i would slow down. The longer i drove the car, the worse it would get. I spoke to my neighbor is a mechanic at a car dealership and he said it was my brakes. I had my front brakes replaced on july 11th under the recall. The shimmying was not as bad but still there. It has progressively gotten worse. Now at 27,000 my rear brakes are being worked on. I have been driving for 18 years and have never had this type of brake trouble and do not feel i should be having it on a new car. |
