Description of the problem	The brakes constantly squeal when braking. I have complained to south coast santa ana vw 3 times and brought the car in and they insist there is nothing wrong with the brakes and that it's just part of the material they manufacture the brakes with. They claim that the squealing is normal and caused by brake dust. The result of the faulty brakes is loss in stopping power. The car also has been lunging or what feels like slipping gears when i accelerate or decelerate. It 's a sudden loss of power when driving on both surface streets and stop and go traffic that creates an unsafe driving condition. The condition seems to persist more when starting from a cold start. Volkswagen south coast dealer in santa ana claims to be unable to replicate the issue, but i have been able to replicate it countless times as well as other drivers.
