Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	1) vehicle shutters and makes roaring noise when braking down hill. Brakes overheat and slide and do not stop well. Vehicle shutters when braking under normal conditions but more so going down hill. 2) tires need balance and rotating every 2000 miles and rotors and brake pads need replacing every 2000-4000 miles. The back shoes are glazed over 3) first time rotors and pads were replaced and back shoes unglazed. Second time rotors turned and the brake pads were not removed and back shoes unglazed. Third time rotors and pads are going to be removed and back shoes unglazed. This vehicle has 7000 miles on it and the district manager of the dealership agrees this is excessive and he did not make me feel confident that it can be fixed. They are claiming this year and model had brake issues. On the fourth time i will sue for lemon law. This is unacceptable. I am in the process of writing a letter to the manufacturer. I have contacted the corporate office. *jb
