| Description of the problem | This is the first of four times that i have had to have brake work done on my truck. Three of the times i was told that the calipers had frozen and so calipers pads and (except this last time) rotors had to be replaced. This is absurd for a truck with less than 45,000 miles. Understand this is expensive!! Have never had anything like this on any other vehicle. Also, i have experienced the oft talked about "death wobble" a few times on the highway. Was rear brakes in 2010' fronts in 2011' now rears again in 2013. |
