I have had my brakes redone 2 times in less than a year and they now need redone again the rotors wear down way to quickly and if you don't replace them as soon as possible your brakes will blow out i had this happen twice!

I had to change all the freakin rotors on my truck again! This was the second time in 6 months. I was told ford used soft metal in the rotors the second time. Ok, so were rotors of the same type put on again? I had taken it in for my 70K service and it drove like sh*t-the brakes would shake really bad when used. I figured things had to settle out after having the tires rotated. Well they did not. This maybe due to the retards working at the Ford dealer-since it was not doing that before I went there and the prior rotor change was only a few months old by then.

Every inspection, like clockwork, either the front rotors and pads or the back rotors and pads or both are shot. The inspection guy just laughs and laughs. In Pennsylvania, Inspection stations have sent more kids through college than the PELL Grant system. I Only drive this car back and forth to work or baseball, 8-10 miles a day tops yet it is always about the brakes and wheels, Wheel cylinders, axles, ball joints, you name it and I have replaced it several times if not once a year. I have used several different inspection stations.
I believe all Pennsylvania stations use inspections as their cash cow and it has nothing to do with safety anymore. Are there any reports or studies on how this system of ripping off PA drivers has made the state and their minions, millions of dollars per year. Do they have a lobby group to keep it in place, and is there any REAL way to fight to bring down this system?
