problem #1

IS 250 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission

: the contact stated while driving any speed on various road conditions, the front brakes squealed at a very high pitch every time the brake pedal was depressed. This occurred at speeds of 55 mph. The vehicle has been taken to the dealership who determined it was a design problem. The manufacturer was contacted as well, who coincided with the dealership. The contact expressed concern because a noise like the one presented by the vehicle could involve safety risks. Updated 10/4/2006 -
