| Description of the problem | Had to have rear brakes replaces on vehicle at 36,000 miles. Front brakes should wear out before rear brakes. Rotors were rusted out. Also the downhill alert light would come on randomly on flat surfaces which causes rear brakes to engage. Because the light is sporadic, dealer would not do anything. |
