Description of the problem | The 2013 chevrolet cruze 1. 8l engine (non-turbo) was installed with a "too small" disc rotor and/or pads for the front - causing the front disc rotor and/or front pads to be subjected to premature failure. My disc rotor and pads routinely fails at under 10,000 miles. Gm recognized this problem and installed larger front disc rotor and pads for the 2014 cruze diesel but refuses to conduct a recall to replace the defective front disc rotor and pads causing dangerous stopping situation when the disc rotor and pads are prematurely worn out. |
