WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FORM THE AFOREMENTIONED DEALER PM 8/24/00. AT THAT TIME IT HAD 14,376 MILES ON IT. A "CARFAX.ORG" REVEALED THAT THIS WAS A RETURN FROM LEASE. THERE WA S NO OTHER INFORMATION THAT WOULD INDICATE THE POTENTIAL FOR MECHANICAL FAILURE. NINE MONTHS AND 5515 MILES LATER THE PETERSON SERVICE DEPT DIAGNOSED OUR VIBRATION ISSUE WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES AS "WARPED ROTORS" AND WE NEED TO REPLACE ALL 4 OF THEM. AT OUR EXPENSE ($430) . THIS THE FIRST TIME IN, OVER 40 YEARS OF VEHICLE OWNERSHIP, THAT I HAVE HAD TIS HAPPEN SO EARLY IN THE LIFE OF A VEHICLE? I THINK THIS SHOULD BE CHECKED OUT?? THE MANUFACTURER KNOWS SOMETHING BECAUSE THEY WILL ONLY GUARANTEE THEIR ROTORS FOR 12 MO/12K MI.?*AK

BRAKES WERE NOT BRAKING EVENLY AND BEGAN TO STUDDER WHEN APPLIED. IN REMEDY, DEALER RESURFACED REAR ROTORS. FRONT ROTORS HAD TO BE REPLACED AT OWNER'S EXPENSE.*AK *JB

ONGOING PROBLEM WITH FRONT BRAKE ROTORS WARPING. DEALER NOTIFIED, AND HAD ROTORS TURNED AND REPLACED. BUT PROBLEM STILL OCCURRING. *AK ORIGINAL ROTORS WARPED WITHIN 6 OMONTHS AFTER PURCHASE OF VEHICLE, (FRONT ROTORS) THEY WERE THEN TURNED, WARPED AGAIN WITHIN 6K MILES THEN REPLACED ONE ROTOR THEN THE OTHER ROTOR WARPED.*JB

AT APPROXIMATELY 10,000 MILES BOTH FRONT BRAKE ROTORS BECAME WARPED/DISTORTED. WARPING WAS DUE TO MATERIALS USED IN MANUFACTURING OF ROTORS. BRAKE ROTOR WARPING OCCURRED AGAIN AT APPROXIMATELY 16,000 MILES. VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 24,500 MILES ON IT, AND DEFECT HAS OCCURRED AGAIN. DEALERSHIP WAS ATTEMPTING TO REPAIR DEFECT. HOWEVER, MANUFACTURER WAS NOT SUPPORTING DEALERSHIP EFFORTS IN CORRECTING THIS DEFECT. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION/ATTACHMENTS.*AK
