Description of the problem	When trying to stop or slow down, steering wheel vibrates so much it feels like i won't be able to hold onto it. My son replaced the rotor and pads on front brakes as they seemed worn. Then in april 2014 we took the car back to the dealer because brakes were grinding. They replaced rotor and pads and things seemed ok until may, when brakes started squealing and steering wheel vibrating again while braking.. Took car back to dealer on may 21, and asked them to check brakes, rotate tires, and change oil. They said brakes were in the "green". Still having vibration of steering wheel while braking, so i asked to bring it in for another check, and now they say the new rotors, (about 2 months old) show signs of significant wear. They asked me if i drove with both feet, and i do not. They verified my complaint of vibration in the steering wheel, and asked me to bring the car back in on this coming friday. The brakes should not be wearing out this quickly...
