I HAVE BROUGHT THIS CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FIVE TIMES. THE FIRST THREE TIMES THEY FIXED THE ROTORS WHICH WERE OUT OF ROUND? AND REPLACED THE BRAKE PADS. THE FOURTH VISIT THEY CHARGED ME, TELLING ME THAT THAT WOULD RENEW THE WARRANTY--NOT EVEN A MONTH LATER THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED--SEVER PULSATING WHEN YOU STEP ON THE BRAKES-- THEY CONFIRMED IT WAS THE SAME PROBLEM AND WANTED ME TO PAY FOR IT AGAIN SAYING IT WAS DUE TO WEAR. MY CONTENTION IS THAT IT SHOULD HAVE STILL BEEN UNDER WARRANTY, ESPECIALLY SINCE THERE WAS NOT EVEN A 30 DAY PERIOD BETWEEN VISITS! FIVE TIME IS NOT A CHARM! *AK
