problem #1

Forester 4WD

  • miles
I have detected that within the speed range of 5 miles per hour up to 70 miles per hour, the brake rotors (front and back) cause a premature vibration when braking with reasonable force on brake pedal from these speeds. This vibration is suspected to be causing irregular wear on all four tires, and will wear vital suspention and braking components prematurely, causing a potential safety hazard.
