| Description of the problem | Brakes seized up with only 37,000 miles. It required a full frontal brake rebuild. The mechanics said this shouldn't have happened with such low mileage and year. Because they were "seized" up, it caused everything to heat up and ruined the calipers, pad and rotars. It was unsafe to drive when we took it in to the mechanic. |
