| Description of the problem | Driving my car i thought i had seen smoke or steam coming from my car, when i parked and got out i smelled burnt rubber, burnt brake smell and this time i could see smoke coming out from my left wheel, i took the car in next day, was told it was over spray on the underside causing the smoking and brakes were good, after that i would occasionally hear grinding noise from my brakes but the dealership said the brakes were good. Over the months i noticed the grinding noise more, april 2015 i took it in for an oil change and asked to have my brakes looked at again because i kept hearing grinding noise from the brakes and front end, again i was told everything was good. By july 3, 2015 i took it in again after hearing a horrific sound when turning the wheels to the right, the wheel baring had gone out causing the brakes to gouge the rotors my car only had 8304 miles on it, i bought the car new in sept 2014, the wheel bearing was replaced and the rotor resurfaced. Car was great for 2 1/2 weeks today 8/6/15 i took my car in because the grinding noise started again just like last time, today i was told rotors were warped causing the brake pads not connecting properly the the rotors. I am really upset being i bought this car brand new and now having issues with the brakes which could be dangerous. .... Updated 10-27-15 *bf |
