| Description of the problem | Would go from 30 mph and up apply the brakes and get a violent shaking. Took it to goodyear (had only 24000 btw) when we got new tires put on it and the guy said the rotors were 3/16 past turning. They wanted to charge us $875 for napa rotors. Went to the dealership they said it wasn't their problem and nothing had been reported. So seeing we were defeated we asked for prices on rotors (since we were there) $310 for driver side and $325 for passenger. I was like uhm ok.... Went to four wheel parts got a drilled set made in usa with pads for $275 out the door. I mean i figured why pay over 600 and have them only last another 24000 miles? Got 54000 on it now with the us brakes and haven't had a problem. Btw it stops alot better than the stock ones did. Oh an i said 1 injury because i did injure my wrist trying to hold it on the road everytime i drove it. |
