Ya, I found out these little buggers have a problem with the rear wheel bearings just replaced mine at 32,126 miles. But, that is the only problem so far, we bought it used and have put 21,000 on it so far. Probably should have replaced the brakes while it was apart, but from the way it sounds I'll have to change the bearings again before they wear down. Maybe I looked at it wrong but did they even make those pads so you can't reverse them. The only pad that looks worn is the rear the front looks like new. From what I understand the car companies don’t make much money off these little cars, so they jack the price of parts way high. I went ahead and replaced the two locking nuts……$10.00 apiece. I almost drilled a hole in the spindle and put castle nut on them.
