Tl the contact owns a 2012 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated that the vehicle shook after short trips and the brakes malfunctioned. Also, the brake pads and rotors needed to be replaced. The dealer (burtness Chevrolet, 802 genesis dr, orfordville, WI 53576, (608) 352-3053) stated that the vehicle was not covered even after they promised to offer the contact an extended four year warranty after the vehicle was purchased. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 76,000.
I bought this car 3/30/2015 from carmax west sahara 7244. Las vegas. They said they have a 100 checks they do on a car before they sell. This car has about 45,000 miles on it and was a rental. Because I did not know the maintenance on the car I took it to my mechanic to check it over and change fluids, check sparks plugs and hoses, wires, and brakes etc. The mechanic found that the brake rotors were cracked. I had to replace all four rotors and brake pads. 900 dollars plus. The mechanic told me they were original parts and must have been defective. Yes I saw the rotors and they were cracked.
