Description of the problem	After buying my certified routan and only putting around a 1000 miles on it the steering wheel would start to shake when braking at a speed of 40mph or faster. Took the car to the dealership and was told the front brakes need to be replaced. At first they said it would not be covered under warranty because it may have been caused by me pushing to hard on the brakes. Completely bull. They finally said it would be covered under warranty. Now at 31,000 the back brakes are squeaky and need to be replaced. Called the dealership and was told the same thing that the brakes are not covered under warranty but as before the brakes should last much longer. Taking it in tomorrow to have the brakes inspected. Hopefully will be covered.
