Disc rotors and brake pads are made of incompatible materials. Rotors are of made from to soft a material, thus resulting in premature wear, accompanied by sever pulsation and steering wheel shake when brakes are applied. This is the same problem they have with their light duty pickup trucks. The dealer is not so inclined to fix or repair because they were able to stall long enough until that portion of the warranty was passed.

(reported on)

LHS

  • miles
At 32800 miles original rotors warped and were replaced. At 42800, the 2nd rotor set warped. In both cases, I was driving on Washington's beltway, and had to stop fast (not a panic stop) from 50mph to 0. (no contact was made with other car) after I rounded a curve. The rotors warped again and caused the car to vibrate. The rotors' design is inadequate. What would happen if I had to make more than one hard stop before the brakes had a chance to cool off? I don't understand the summary as recorded below.
