Brake pads manufactured by carbotech engineering www.carbotecheng.com manufacturer a brake pad for the 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer evolution that is sold as a "direct stock replacement" upon questioned by several customers who bought these pads (myself included) about obscenely loud noises and worse than stock braking ability, they refused to look at the situation and correct the situation as necessary. Then admitted that the pads are not for the evolution and that the pads do not fit the application they were sold for. They refused to refund money or to further research the issue of braking safety. They continue to sell the pads that they know are not a proper fit potentially causing a brake failure and a fatal accident.
