Default brakes

We had to turn the rotors on thecharger today. I was driving last week in warm weather (you know global warming or just spring) and the thing shuttered while braking with 20,000 miles on it the dealer said it was a maintenance item not a warranty item. so i took them off and had them turned for 20 dollars the pads were barely worn. it brakes so much better now better than new. its an r/t

Good to hear it's fixed and it didn't cost you an arm/leg. Something like that can be hazardous.

Sad to hear the dealership wouldn’t fix it. Rotors shouldn't do that at that mileage. Customer service/quality assurance is being flushed down the tubes. Guess they don’t care about customer loyalty and repeat business that good service will bring.

His excuse about it happening was its hot, Heck we have had one of the coolest winters and wettest winters on record. I personally had 41 inches of snow this past season west of Amarillo. and at one point in march i got 6 inches of rain in one night. Lows are stiil in the 40's and highs in the 70's. We have yet to break 80 more than 5 times this year. sorry it just irritates me
