Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Vehicle full loaded with family of 5 and at highway speed began to shutter violently when braking in traffic. This was not the activation of abs. Stability and control seemed at risk as well as braking power. General style of driving is to coast a great deal for greater gas mileage so this event may mirror similar events related to failed, inadequate, or deteriorated brakes at lower mileages. Authorized dealer indicated the brakes were fine but they will continue to vibrate/shudder due to "rust" and "pitting". Dealer's experience when test driving was with only one person, the driver, in the vehicle. When there is only one driver the shuddering is tolerable rather than fully loaded where control and stability become a significant concern. Dealer indicated that if i did not like the shuddering of the vehicle, they would happily replace the brake rotors and the pads. In the interest of safety for my family, i chose to replace the brake rotors and pads. This is the earliest i have ever replaced brakes on a new vehicle. I wanted to share this information since it falls into place with similar information being shared to help others in evaluating whether or not to purchase this vehicle. This experience will be something to consider in my future vehicle purchases. The new brakes work very well without any shudder/shaking/vibration. I am hopeful the new brakes will last more miles than the original set.
