 Description of the problemThe brakes started vibrating and shuddering when the brake pedal was pushed. Took to dealer and were told that the rotors were warped and the disk pads were worn out. Still under warranty so they replaced rotors and brake pads. This has happened approximately every 8 months we have had the car. The first three were covered under warranty. I had to fight with the dealer for the third replacement. The fourth replacement of the brakes the dealer refused to cover the cost. We had to pay to get the work done. We are now about 10 months from those brake replacements and once again the car is shuddering violently when we apply the brakes. This seems to be a chronic issue and a safety issue. I understand that brake pads wear out but i cannot believe that you have to replace the rotors and brake pads every 8/10 months under normal driving. This car is primarily used to take my kids to school and activities. Updated 5/1/2015 *js
