problem #2

(reported on)

Sportage

  • miles
We have replaced the brake pads several times since owning this vehicle for the last almost two years, approximately 6 times to replace with the most recent time being only 5000 miles ago, the dealer now wants us to pay for the replacement and the warranty is still in existance with the vehicle (almost 30,000 miles). I want to know if any - what is being done about this problem there is also excessive brake pad wear dust on the outside of the front hub caps. Please contact me - as this is getting quite expensive to replace every 5,000 miles.
