Re brakes: They have replaced the brake shoes/pad twice ands rotors once. Re tire/wheels they could not get them to balance out tried 4 times ( Goodyear tried twice) total of 6 times. Again a week and a half later, it pulls left when braking, and vibration is back again. I have spoke with wayne ( service mgr) and al mc donald ( general sales mgr). I have informed them of the Nevada lemon law # nrs 597.630 he said to inforce that I would have to get a "lawyer". please note I only marked the first time of the problems I have full doc's of every visit on these items. Please help! thank you, crystal del giudice. (tiresize: P235/75R15)
