Vehicle was purchased in Virginia with the assumption it would pass Maryland inspection as it had passed Virginia inspection. Front brake pads were worn too thin and the rotors were rusted. To pass Maryland inspection is needed new front brake pads and rotors and would have needed rear pads also. Dealership refused to be responsible for the problem. The consumer stated the dealer provided a reimbursement and requested to withdraw the complaint.
