Cobalt

  • 2,500 miles
2010 Chevrolet Cobalt ss. Very loud brake squeal coming to a stop 20km and under (louder than a city bus). This has occurred consistently from 2500km. The car has been in the shop a dozen times, every time they machine the brakes and tell me the squeal is normal for high end brakes. I have driven porches, high end performance vehicles like sti's, 350Z's, S2000's even high end BMW's, corvettes and ferraris, none of which have a "normal" squeal.
