Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I am the one and only,'original new car owner'. At 25k miles i needed to replace brake pads as well as rotors. Rear pads were less than half worn, however both rear rotor had 0. 8 cm, peripheral circular unused rusty rings on both surfaces. Both, left + right wheels. I know i am repeating to double emphasis my anxiety for a car my daughter uses. I suspect both rear calipers (brake-cylinders) receive less than adequate pressures + pads are touching only half of expected rotor area. Immediate & thorough inspection of my vehicle is requested.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
