Sentra

I reported to service manager-zeek, sheehy Nissan annapolis, that the car has progressively gotten worse upon braking, to the point of jerking to a stop, and even sliding at low speeds below 40mph. No problem, they replaced front brake shoes, and turned rotors. I noticed lately that when I brake, I hear this dry sound coming from the right front wheel. I intend to report it along with the engine belt squeaking sounds this weekend.

Brakes lock up at 20-35 mph under normal breaking conditions causing loss of control. Constant whine from front left side. Front left rotor turned once due to pulsating pedal. Pulsating has returned along with "shimmy" in steering at various speeds. Front tires seem to be wearing at accelerated rate. Appt # 2 set with dealer.
