| Description of the problem | Heard squealing and grinding coming from rear brakes. Replaced pads and lubricated pins, now 6/2013 hear the same noise again and this time premature wear of the pads and rotors are warped and falling apart. Also lug nuts are rusted and swollen (this at 45000) just under 14000 after last replacement. I will be taking it to a certified mechanic so the dealership cannot triple charge for work and tell me it is my fault. We'll see how long this repair lasts. Also had the car in for bouncing in the front... Had tires rotated and rebalanced and still does it periodically the dealer said nothing wrong with the front end. |
