Brake Disc Problems of Chevrolet Cavalier

In wet conditions my 2004 Cavalier does not stop well. When I went through the car wash it almost didn't stop when I approached the road, narrowly avoiding an accident. When I took it to the dealer, they told me that they didn't have any problems when they washed the car and then drove it. So they sent me away and didn't fix anything. I'm scared that my teenagers may not be safe in this car in wet conditions. I have no problems with my envoy or my vibe at the same car wash. I've worked at gm for 30 years and take good care of my cars.

This is an ongoing problem with the front rotors becoming warped after about 15,000 to 20,000 miles of use. I went to the dealer twice under warrenty and both times they turned the roters. I have since replaced the roters and brake pads three times. I think this is highly unusual. I fear someday the braking system will completly fail.

Brake pads/ rotors and shoes are prematurely wearing, cause unknown. Please give any further details.

One or more front rotors warped--dealer contacted, but claims warped rotor (even at 30k miles) is considered "normal wear and tear" under gm warranty, and thus not covered.

While traveling and without any indication consumer lost control of vehicle as a result of an accident. Technician stated front brake disc had failed. Please provide further information.

At any speeds in wet or rain condition brake stopping distance is almost doubled from dry road use, vehicle is equipped with factory spoke alloy wheels . On inspection of rotor/caliper area it is evedent that no kind of shield around rotor allows water to get on rotors , possible this particular vehicle is missing shields or this is a design flaw.
