| Description of the problem | Brake failure due to lining coming off backing plate. I was driving along, went to stop at a light, apply brakes and pedal went to floor. I replaced the rear brakes where the lining had came off. One week later the same thing happened to the front brakes but that happened while backing out of the garage. In the case of the front brakes, i still have both lining and backing plate. The vehicle only had 17k miles and had plenty of lining life left (had just pass a state inspection) just seems odd and everyone i talk with says manufacture defect. |
