One problem related to brake disc pads has been reported for the 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier based on all problems reported for the 2004 Cavalier.
I have noticed excessive brake fad at speeds of higher than 50 miles per hour, but not in excess of 65 miles per hour. The problem also happens when the roads are little more than damp. It would seem that the brake pads and/or shoes are either too small for the car or the material is not of good quality. I have 2 other Chevrolet vehicles that do not have this problem. Only my 2004 Cavalier has this problem.
