Description of the problem | When driving then braking i/ we noticed that the jeep had vibration and chattering ,shaking feeling at 65 mph on the highway. Then started to notice chatter and scrapping sound at lower speeds like 25-35 mph . So looking at the rotors i found the right rear to have (2) two grooves on it . So i took it to big o in sparks ,nv 89431 for a brake inspection and they showed me that the brake pads still had 65 to 70 percent left and that the rotors were crackedin several places. They had to replace both rotors and brake pads . I feel this is a defect in the product and should be investigated . If they came apart while driving someone could loose control and possiblly loose there life. |
