The rotors are wearing out, and when applying the brakes, the vehicle will have heavy vibration and extended stopping distance. The dealer notified. The power booster failed which was located behind the master cylinder and mounted to a firewall. The vehicle would not stop in the proper amount of time when the pedal was depressed. The pedal would need to be applied really hard then would stop 15 to 25 inches further. The consumer was informed that there was a spring within the metal rod which caused it to fail. The master and the booster assembly was replaced.

On the 10 of July I took my 2001 chevy Blazer in for routine brake service, I was then told by my mechanic(satch whitt) that I had 4 defective rotors that needed to be replaced, that they appeared to be defective. He stated that the metal was just flaking off and to him it appeared that they had been made from reprocessed metal. He also stated that he had seen alot of this in the newer chevy products recently. Although I was lucky and did not have an accident I feel that this is a very real safety concern for american families. I have kept the rotors in hopes that Chevrolet would stand behind thier product. Thank you for your time and consideration in this safety matter, mark wiley.

Brake rotors rusted ,causing bad vibration when stopping. Two of the rotors could be turned and two had to be replaced because of the rust problem. I kept the two that were replaced. The dealership told me that if this vehicle wasn't driven much in winter in michigan, that rotors would rust because of the humidity. I told them I kept the vehicle in the garage, but they said that would not make any difference. I felt the material was defective. The vehicle was still under warranty, but that would not cover it. I contacted gm to get a field representative's name and number to talk to but they would not give it to me. The dealership would not give me the field representative's name and number either. I feel that if a vehicle's brake system is going to rust sitting in a garage in the winter, that information should be public knowledge published in large print in the vehicle brochures.

About 1/4 to 1/2 of one side of one of the front rotor surfaces was partially corroded away. In my opinion this would have seriously affected braking in an emergrncy stop. Photographs of the rotor and the rotor itself are availble for inspection.
