Description of the problem | On two occasions with the same scenario within a year... The car would begin to shake and pulsate when putting on the brakes. Then would add within a few days would abruptly lunge forward at an increased speed when braking, posing a safety hazard. By then when applying the brakes it would begin to grind and scrap the rotors. The auto repairman examined the vehicle, and said there was not a problem with the brakes but with the rotors needed replaced. He found that the brakes would get stuck which would scrap the rotors due to bad calipers. I have within a year replaced 2 sets of brake pads and rotors. |
