Description of the problem | The car jerks when the brakes are applied. The dealer replaced the rotors at around 25,000 miles. The next time it happened, it was at around 40,000 miles. The dealer would not replace the rotors. At around 64,000 miles it has started again. The first time i had to take this to the dealer, they knew with out looking at the car what it was. I feel that this is a safety issue and these rotors are defective and the company should have to replace them. *ak |
