Description of the problem | Excess vibrations while braking on vehicle with 30k miles. Dealer claims that issue is in the breaking system, probably deformation of rotor causing unsafe and excess vibrations while breaking. The vibration is big enough to move the steering while breaking causing safety issues. This is not normal for a car with low mileage. Probably rotor design not good enough for road conditions at us. |
